     Chris' How Hill in Colour


Back to Boardman Index

These pictures are from Chris Boardman's Albums. Chris grouped his pictures by subject rather than by date. Here we see a selection of colour pictures taken at How Hill. Chris took a lot of pictures on colour slides. These slides have not stood the test of time as well as the older black and white prints and some of the colours have faded a bit, but they are a great record of post war life at How Hill in the 1950s and early 60s.
