Hertford's Past In Pictures

I picked up a copy of this book last week, it is wonderful, does anyone know if Len Green is still with us? The book answers a lot of questions, notably "where was the Cold Bath Inn?" MoJo

There are references to the Cold Bath Inn in 'A three-acre triangle: the story of Hertford's North Crescent' by Jean Purkiss

Brilliant pictures. Does anyone know where more can be found, especially of Parliament Square and the Court House

Not on line but the museam have many that you can make an appointment to look through and HALS at county hall have lots that you can photocopy, the ones at HALS are indexed by place so there may be some specific ones there, can't remeber it is a while since I went through them.

I have a copy of a book called "Hertford" in the Archive Photographs series compiled by Mervyn Miller, I believe it's out of print but the Library probably has a copy. I got mine from Books@Hertford maybe the Hertford Museum can help

There's usually a copy of Mervyn Millers book on EBay if you can't source it locally. I'm always checking Ebay for postcards of Hertford
