Cliffe Castle Park in the late 1950s

These beautifully atmospheric photographs of an autumn day in the park of Cliffe Castle were taken by Keighley-based photographer John Tobin in the late 1950s.

We have been given 100s of negatives for photographs taken by John and are gradually scanning them and adding them to our Flickr site. We also want to find out more about the pictures and about John himself, so if anyone can help please get in touch.

Our thanks to Kathleen Procter who donated the negatives and to Billy Stride for scanning the negatives and producing the wonderful images.
