- A brief look at the history of Stamford town in Lincolnshire. Presented by architectural historian Alec Clifton-Taylor. Episode 4 from series 1 broadcast originally on BBC2 25th August 1978.
I have digitally enhanced the program from its original 4:3 aspect ratio to the 16:9 HD widescreen format for your enjoyment.
This is one of the programmes on BBC television from several decades ago. It is marvelous that it has found its way to UA-cam. No other programme quite like it was ever produced. It is unique and every episode was a delight to view. Well done, Uploader of this episode.
Lived in Stamford for most of my life and I'm a Collyweston slater so this film absolutely resonates with me! Have worked on several of the roofs featured in this film!
As a Rutlander at the time of the original screening I was very often in Stamford so this film shows it exactly as I knew it - thanks for uploading!
Available as a BBC set of 4 DVDs. A complete joy, as ACT might say.
Would love to see the other episodes of this show ❣️
Nostalgia writ large Brian. Thank you,
Threre were three series made, then Alec joined the choir invisible. Some time ago, the whole three series were uploaded here - then disappeared again - probably copyright issues. Nice to see some reappear again...
Wow such beautiful
then modern architecture happened.
Never has such a high architectural water mark been reached since Edwardian times.
I visited in 2018, and it didn’t look that different.
It's not the 'brash, high-rise blocks' that are the problem, it's the detached houses in new developments.
