places : castle bytham quarry
: pictures from the past
added 02/10/03
The following images have been captured from documents loaned to theBythams
website by Nigel Allsopp of Castle Bytham.
Nigel holds the originals and is willing to allow interested parties
to have access to them for whatever reason on request (and of course
with reasonable notice!)
Nigel can be contacted by email at the following address allsoppn@aol.com
We hold digital copies of the documents as shown on the website here
and also in enhanced resolution.
Contact Us if you would like
to receive copies of them electronically.
The first image shows the men that worked in the quarry in, it is
believed, the 1940's or 1950's. The names of many of the work men
are known and have been included. Can you identify any of those so
far unidentified or do you know someone who may be able to?
The next four images are taken from promotional literature reprinted
from "The Country House and Estate" (magazine?) published
in March /April 1926. The document is a two fold leaflet, A4 in size
with the fold along its shortest edge.
The final image is a picture of the lime kilns taken during their
working life, date and persons unknown.

Do you have, or do you know someone that has, other historical documents
or pictures relating to theBythams area which we could include images
of on this website?
Doing this preserves documents for posterity, which may subsequently
be lost or damaged, and also makes them available to a wider audience.
Contact Us if you think you
might have anything of interest.
