Excellent compilation shots of ode Lye, sad they had to demolish so many old buildings. I remember using your fathers photographic shop in the 1980s. Thanks for sharing.

I was born in the Old Vine Inn at the top of the High Street and went to both Orchard Lane infants and junior schools in the 50's. These pictures are beautiful, especially the snow scenes - vivid memories! Thank you so much for putting them here.

These pictures have bought back some very fond memories for me. I worked with a company called Vivarose Building Contractors who did the shop front at the studio were you are now. That must be 1980 ish. Very sad to see the high street as it is now. Thanks for sharing these.

Thank you very much for your comments & I'm really sorry for the late reply to your post....... Yes, it would have been around 1980ish when the shop front work was completed, a very good job you did too ;o) Thankfully, the High Street does seem to be coming back. During the last couple of years quite a few new and diverse businesses have opened. It would seem that the current climate is pretty good for Lye and not so for Stourbridge town, when every few weeks another shop seems to shut.
