The Collection

Images

The museum has 14,000 images consisting of glass plate negatives, transparencies, postcards, negatives and photographs of all sizes. Approximately 50% have been digitised and can be viewed on the computer in the Museum's Research Room. 

• Visitors are welcome to search through our computerised catalogue and view pictures  on the datebase. You can purchase an A4 copy of any image on photographic paper at a cost of £5.00.  Contact the museum for details.

Our image collection is very comprehensive covering a variety of themes and events:

• Photographs of the May Fair 1979 and other years
• Photographs of the restoration work of St Swithun's
• Transparencies of East Grinstead Pottery Works
• Photos taken by Harold Connold, Malcolm Powell and other local photographers

As well as covering East Grinstead,  we have images that show the surrounding area.
