Coracles 1945: Following a pattern evolved over two thousand years ago, coracle builders construct the oval, basket-shaped boats that were being used by ancient Britons when Caesar invaded the island. Willow and hazel rods are bent into shape and covered with tarred calico, making a small, light craft in which a single paddler sits. They are used mainly by salmon fishers along remote Welsh rivers, and coracle men have been responsible for adding measurably to Britain's fish supply during the war. When conditions are favourable the men often work for 19 hours a day, c. 1945 (b/w photo)

One of the biggest bonfires to be burnt is the huge 50 ft. high pyre erected in to ground of the Aldersbrook Children’s Homes, Wanstead, London. This pyre took a month to build and is the remnants of all the waste branches and rubbish that local firms and people wish to dispose of. These children, toddlers, and those up to the age of 15, watch this huge nobfire burn and are given a display of fireworks bought from donations and collections from well wishers. The toddlers are not told about Guy Fawkes because many of them are very upset when they see him burning. They are told it is a bag of straw. Before the bonfire is lit the children and nursesplay ring-a-roses round the base which is 50 yards round. 4th November 1948 (b/w photo)

These children at a Leamington school stepped back in time to celebrate a centenary. The youngsters at St Peter's Roman Catholic School dressed in Victorian clothing for a day to get a taste of what school life was like 100 years ago. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the main school block in Augusta Place, although a school was established next door by nuns as early as 1852.
