Cheshire / Wirral Heritage Open Days
« on: Friday 01 September 17 21:32 BST (UK)  »
Hi

Just thought this may be of interest -

Many buildings, churches etc are open to the public with free access from 2.9.17 - 10.9.17 during Wirral Heritage Week. These places are either not normally open to the public or there is a charge to enter.
Some interesting places, walks and lovely churches including the derelict chapel in Flaybrick Cemetery where conservation work has been carried out and will be open to the public on certain days this week at 2.00 p.m.

Some require booking but lots have no booking required.

Here's the link to the brochure -

Hi everyone

I thought some might like to have a look at this link -

Over the next few days some buildings/churches/ etc in Birkenhead and Wirral which are normally closed to the public or charge for admission are open and free to enter.

Some of the walks look interesting as well.

Hope it's of some interest

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Photo of Thomas from the newspaper
« on: Monday 19 February 07 20:57 GMT (UK)  »
Hi everyone,

This is my gg Uncle Thomas who was killed in World War 1. I have found a photograph of him in the local newspaper from 1917, this is the only photo I have been able to find after much searching.

I know it is a long shot but is there anything that can be done to make it clearer/sharper please. I appreciate it would probably be more difficult but thought it might be worth a try.

I would be very grateful if anyone can help.

many thanks,

Neptune

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Grandad and my Dad
« on: Saturday 25 November 06 21:10 GMT (UK)  »
Hi everyone,

I've just been given this photo of my Dad with his Dad. I've never seen my Grandad before until now as he died before I was born and this is the only photo that I know of. I would guess it was taken in the early 1930's.
Unfortunately it is a little worse for wear.  I would be very grateful if some kind person could help to try to improve it please.

Thanks to anyone who might help.

Regards

Chris

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Help with photos please (1)
« on: Tuesday 18 April 06 22:37 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone

I wonder if anyone can help me with these old photos please. I will have to send them separately - the file is too big. The first one is my Grandmother Annie when she was young but I think it needs a bit of repairing and colouring if possible. The following photo is of her brother Tommy as a young man - he was killed in 1940 on submarine HMS Swordfish when it struck a mine - it was discovered 43 years later and is still at the bottom of the sea.

I think they look alike but the photo quality is not very good. I would be nice to see  if they can be improved at all please. If only one can be done I think my Gran is in need of more repair!

Here's Annie.

Thank you very much to anyone who might be able to help.

Regards

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Grandad in colour please?
« on: Saturday 15 October 05 22:02 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone - I've seen some of the impressive work on photos and thought I'd ask if anyone could try to add some colour to this picture please.

This is the only surviving photo of my grandad Michael. He died before I was born. I know his hair was dark and his eyes were green if this helps.

I would be very grateful if someone can help.

Many Thanks
