I left my home town of Barnsley 30 years ago - great to see these old pictures & to look at how my grandparents would have seen the town when they were children before WW1. Very moving.

Fantastic photos, very nostalgic. The Harvey Institute/Civic Hall is on Eldon Street not Peel Street, I worked there as a teenager and my friend's father was the manager.

Stuart, I have had a look at the coloured photos on KZbin and they are fantastic. Thank you for sharing. It brings it all back to me of the times I was working, part time, at the Co-op restaurant, when I was 14 years of age. When I left school, I worked there full time and while I was there I went into-I am not being rude-the "Cock shop" where we cooked chickens on a rotating oven type machine. Thank you for the memories.

Job well done thank you

[@oldbarnsleyincolour]

Thanks :)

[@dukeofengland]

I prefer Barnsley as it was then to how it is now, just thousands of glass panes, most of the lovely old buildings gone.

[@oldbarnsleyincolour]

Yup - many do :)

[@TomNicholson77]

Beautiful work 👌🏼

[@oldbarnsleyincolour]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@chrisvicary5470]

Have you any photos of John street in Barnsley Where Garners motorcycle shop used to be? I searched for years to find one

[@GLYNDYER]

What’s crazy is Barnsley town centre could be video recorded and then re outputted as a nerf model and then retexture mapped with these recoloured and upscaled photos to re-engineer a model of Barnsley from the past.

[@oldbarnsleyincolour]

I wish yer would..!

[@alrandall5264]

Hi Stuart. Love the photos. My great grandfather was one of the first photographers in Barnsley. He had a shop on Shambles Street I believe. Can you shed any light on this?

[@oldbarnsleyincolour]

I found this - The Barnsley Photographic Society was founded on May 21, 1924 in the Shambles Street photographic studio of a Mr A Roberts. The original subscription was five shillings per year!

[@alrandall5264]

@@oldbarnsleyincolourMy Great Grandfather pre-dated Mr Roberts and I seem to recall that he occupied those premises before him.

[@JohnJackson-zc5cv]

Hi Stuart, just in case you do not know, I believe the second photo shows the Ebeneeza church where I 'froze' on stage as a young lad. Going up the right hand side eventually leads up to Buckley Street where I grew up until we were all moved to Athersley North.

[@oldbarnsleyincolour]

Thanks for the memories John 👃
