Got rid of the worst scratches but there is not a lot of detail, regards, John.Could someone improve this photo for me please? I don't know who is pictured but the reverse reads 'Baby Bennett, 19 Bridge Road, Gravelly Hill' which was my Gt Grandparents house.
Attempted as best as possible with large photo. Hope it helps. JimCould someone improve this photo for me please? I don't know who is pictured but the reverse reads 'Baby Bennett, 19 Bridge Road, Gravelly Hill' which was my Gt Grandparents house.
Hi, any idea where Bridge Road is/was? I'm not showing anything up for the area (or surrounding districts) even on maps of the time.... 'Baby Bennett, 19 Bridge Road, Gravelly Hill'
VERY nice – thank you very much. I was thinking 'can't see for looking', but the name isn't printed on the map version I was checking!On this c1955 map, Bridge road is in red, and no 19 is in blue.
That was the difficulty I had (and there wasn't much of the period in that road either). Thanks for the effort though, nonetheless!The only Bridge Road I can find is classes as Saltley/Alum Rock...
oldMohawk, so far would you give Windows 11 a thumbs up? I am looking really hard at a new computer and putting 11 on it. Your feedback would be appreciated!A bit late to the party but I'm running 'Windows 11 beta' in my laptop and wanted to test a 'freebie' photo editor with it and chose this photo which gave it a good test ...

Hi, I used Gimp 2.10. If you search the forum for the word gimp you will see lots of posts from me as I learnt how to use it, but for serious restoration Photoshop is better and more user-friendly but costs !Which photo editor were you trying?
(I'm wondering about trying a Linux Windowsalike, Windowsfx 11, being an old UNIX/Linux hack, by the by – although this is getting WAY off thread).

Hi Richard, I suppose one description of Windows 11 is that it is Windows 10 with a 'shiny new wrapper'. Every app/program/file I used with Win 10 works with Win 11.oldMohawk, so far would you give Windows 11 a thumbs up? I am looking really hard at a new computer and putting 11 on it. Your feedback would be appreciated!
