This collection of photographs is a selection of images taken throughout the decades by the Price family, who settled in Whitby and Ellesmere Port from the 1890s. It is a celebration of their history, their times and their experiences. Many members of the family, under a variety of different surnames, still reside in the town. (select photo to expand)
