We have a picture of Belper High Street and Bolsover Castle from the skies in the 1930’s and how driving looked in the 1920’s.
We have workmen hard at it and a youngsters enjoying fun in the snow, care-free from the ever nearing World War II.
All in all it shows a very different life across our county.
