Thanks to the excellent Hartlepool Museum Service and Hartlepool Library Service, we can share these excellent reminders of the town in days gone by.

We have Stotfold Street, Park Road and Whitby Street as well as plenty more besides. Have a browse through this retro selection.

And once you have done that, why not take a look at this previous collection of Hartlepool street views we first shared with you earlier this year.
