The photos featured come from Keeping East Lancashire in the Picture – a two-year volunteer project led by Lancashire Archives, aiming to digitise and share historic photo collections from libraries in Burnley, Colne, Nelson and Accrington.
The project brings together people of all ages and backgrounds to help preserve local history and make these archives more accessible, inclusive and sustainable. It’s funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and the Friends of Lancashire Archives.
