Wye Valley, Providence Chapel and Belvoir Castle 35mm Vintage Images

The pictures below are some recent 35mm slides I have restored taken from my collection. They can be seen below or on Clickasnap unwatermarked.

Wye Valley

The picture above was taken sometime in the 1970's exact date and location unknown. It shows the River Wye flowing through a valley cutting. The Wye Valley is an area of outstanding natural beauty that straddles the borders of England and Wales and covers areas of the counties of Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and Monmouthshire.

Belvoir Castle

Belvoir Castle is an historic stately home that can be found in the county of Leicestershire, England, it is the ancestral home of the Dukes of Rutland. This picture was taken in the 1970's the original slide was tinted red and discoloured so I have restored the colour when editing.

Providence Chapel

The Providence Chapel at the Black Country Living Museum was removed from nearby Netherton in November 1975 and rebuilt within the grounds of the museum over a 2 year period starting in June 1977. The slide was taken in the early 1990's.

3 More Vintage 35mm Slides from the 1980's

 I am currently digitising, re-editing and restoring my collection of 35mm slides for sharing on Clickasnap and the pictures below are 3 that I recently uploaded. I have included the original picture below each to show the difference between that and the re-edited version displayed on Clickasnap. I am not sure of the locations of any of the pictures shown below, the only information i have is they were taken in the 1980's.


The re-edited version shows a village somewhere in South Asia, the picture can also be seen on Clickasnap.

The next picture shows a winter scene on the edge of a woodland. 


The final picture shows a weir in a woodland setting, it could possibly be Ogden Water, Near Halifax but I'm not too sure.


Clicking any of the restored, re-edited versions should open a link in another window to the version on Clickasnap. Clicking any of the original scanned 35mm slides should open a link top my vintage images album on Clickasnap.

Vintage Images from the 70's and 80's.

 The following post features a random set of 4 images I recently digitised from my collection. The were taken in the 70's or 80's mainly in the United Kingdom.


River Thames and St Helen's Church Spire from Abingdon Bridge, Oxfordshire. The picture was taken in July 1986.


This picture taken at a date unknown in the 1980's and shows a English village scene, again i'm not sure which village is featured.


The picture shows Sugarloaf and Abergavenny Castle, Wales, taken in the 1970's I have also recoloured this picture as my original image was black and white.

Taken in a foreign land in the 70's or 80's, again i'm not sure of the actual date or location and will probably never know being a beach front sunset.

Vintage 35mm Slides from the 1970's. Brecon Beacons, The Farne Islands, Buttermere Lake and a Sussex Farm Dog.

Part of my collection of 35mm slides I have acquired over the years and am in the process of digitising. These were purchased by me a few years ago with the copyright assigned to me with the purchase. Sadly the collection was limited on information with only the place name and date sometimes provided. There are 5 I have uploaded today which can be seen here and on Flickr.

This picture was taken at the Brecon Beacons, Wales in July 1974.

The 2nd and 3rd pictures were both taken at the Farne Islands, Northumberland, England. They were taken just as people were gathering for a boat trip away or to the island I am not sure. The slides were pictured in July 1973.
