Domesday
Posted: 20 Sep 2011, 18:55
Any of you who were at school in the 80's may remember the BBC Domesday project which atempted to record a snapshot of life in Blighty at that time. The contents are now available online, and while there aren't a lot of photos (given the time, no digital cameras etc) some of the text inputs are very interesting. Simply search for your area on the map and click on a shaded tile to find out some of the info that was recorded at that time
