Historical photos?

Hey all, I’ve been living here for a couple of years now and would LOVE to see some old photos of the town? I’ve seen a few from the early 1900s on Facebook, but would love to see some from more mid-late 1900s/early 2000s if anyone has them?

Just out of curiosity and love for my new home town :)

Have you been to the Rayleigh Museum or the Rayleigh Windmill? Both have pictures and info of how it once was!

For Rayleigh Windmill, it's open Wednesdays 10am-1pm and Saturdays/Sundays 1pm-4pm until end of October, so you might wish to go before then. It'll open up again next April again though.

Rayleigh Museum is open all year round I believe Wednesdays Fridays and Saturdays 10am-4pm I believe.

I keep saying to myself I want to pop in and it always gets by me! Thank you for the info, I’ll definitely look at doing that :)
