This photo is among my McIntosh and Allardyce family album I recently picked this album up from my late grandmothers sister and unfortunately she is unable to help identify due to her health conditions . this album had been put together by an uncle of my grandmother he passed around 50-60 years ago

would be very interested to know what era this was or any information on what the girl is doing with the bike and the basket on her back


also would be nice to see it restored

many thanks

ryan

It looks like a stock photo to me, possibly a washerwoman. Around WW1 to 1920's I would suggest.

She could be selling bread I suppose.
The proportions on this photo are all wrong. A girl/woman standing next to a bike on all the photos I've looked at, the handlebars only come to about her waist. This could be a child dressed up, perhaps for a parade with all the ribbons on the bike.
Anyway here's a clean up from me,
Pat
Bownass - Lancashire & Westmorland
Hoggarth - Lancashire & Westmorland
Jackson- Lancaster
Waller - Dent, Yorkshire dales
Omerod - Lancashire
Redburn - Lancashire
Evans - Hereford

RESTORERS please do not use my restores without my permission THANK YOU
