These are some photographs I inherited taken by grandfather in late 1920's around Leeds and later Ramsgate when ho moved to his first job as as a town gas plant engineer. I have cleaned them up as best as I can and they are either scanned from original negatives or contact prints of indifferent quality as some are fading.
