Street Memories of Durham

The face of Durham has changed in so many ways over the years. Photographs of the life on Durham’s streets in yesteryear are a vivid reminder of a world that has passed today. Shops and buildings come and go, modes of transport evolve, fashions change, new food and drink establishments cater to different tastes of the age, working patterns are modified, the public find fresh entertainment venues, and so on, and yet many aspects of the roads and streets of Durham remain recognisable too through this time.In Street Memories of Durham author Michael Richardson has captured in photographs from the past how the streets of Durham have changed over time. This nostalgic portrayal of life in Durham in yesteryear will fascinate all those who have lived in and known Durham through the years.
