Who doesn't love old photos? If you're in, or from, or just interested in East Lancashire's past, you could help to put images like this online. We love supporting Lancashire Archives projects like this - along with The National Lottery Heritage Fund North.

We had a brilliant time in #Lancaster on Saturday, celebrating the north-west's history and talking to people about Lancashire Archives and how the Friends support their work. And we were delighted to welcome five new Friends members who signed up on the day. flarchives.co.uk/about/join-us
