looking for old photos

[a-l]

Hello everyone. Please can anyone tell me where to find old photos of Great Holme St and Buckingham St. ?                              kind regards                                                  Sue

Is there a local history group as these are often a source of great historical photos of streets and buildings.

If you're on Facebook, there's a group called Leicester Past & Present.  They might be able to help.

You could try Leicestershire archives.

If you Google "Old Leicester Photos", there are a good number interesting links!

I googled Buckingham St and see there was a thread on Rootschat some while ago asking for old photos of that street. If you do a search you should be able to read the replies and look at the photos people came up with.
