Time was when the national cycling event, The Milk Race, came through Grantham, before organisers were discouraged from doing so.

This shows one of the riders in 1984.

Do you recognise where?

 

The Griffin Inn, Whatton, since demolished and replaced by houses.

Work begins on a new estate off Harrowby Lane, with Belton Avenue, in the background, a couple of years ago.

 

John Peatman sent us this Christmas Party picture. But whose is it and where? Do you recognise anyone?

 

We are pretty sue this is the stirring of the Christmas pudding at Grantham Hospital.

Not sure of the year, but probably the 1960s.

It is one of Gordon Staniland’s untitled photos.

Can you name anyone or add any information.

Where in Grantham was this taken?
