In the early 1900's, William Nelson, a local professional photographer, took a series of photographs of Biggin Hill and surrounding area. They show a very different scene from that of today. I have revisited the locations and tried to capture exactly the same images (traffic on Main Road permitting!) as they appear today. Many of the old buildings still exist but, as you'll see, the surroundings are very different. I would like to thank John Nelson for the use of his grandfather's photographs and for using some of his text from his book 'Grandfathers Biggin Hill'.  Since creating this site in 2000 I have acquired numerous photographs from a variety of sources. Many have come as a result of this site so if you have any old photographs of Biggin Hill, and surrounding area, that you feel could be used on this site (no matter how insignificant you may think they are) then please Email me tony@bigginhill-history.co.uk   Click on the link below to see if there had been new additions to the site since you were here last.
