This very old image of Main Street, Scarcliffe taken at the top end. To date none of these people has
been identified. A close up of the children can be seen as an image in the "Who are they?" section.
The man with the cycle is believed to be a "Jack Heath", but it is conjecture. The houses on the right
are still standing. This is a very rare image of Scarcliffe.
This is an old image of the Elm Tree Public House dated pre 1950s.
The pub now renovated and refurbished still trades. It is located at the bottom of Main Street.

Can you name any of the other boys?
A Scarcliffe school photo that has some Palterton children thereon. Nellie Rimmington is girl in spotted dress, black collar, third row back, third from left.
George Rimmington is also hereon. Can you help with the names of the youngsters?
A Scarcliffe photo that has at least one Palterton player thereon. Can you help with the names of any of these footballers?
Although not yet identified, certainly George Rimmington a Palterton man is hereon. He was one of the best local footballers
at this time.
I think it is a reasonable to believe there will also be an Elliott hereon.
A Scarcliffe school photo that will have some Palterton scholars hereon.
Can you help with the names of any of these children?
