Nowstalgia Gallery
The Nowstalgia Gallery — where yesterday's photographs meet today's Furness. Faded prints, sepia tones, and glimpses of streets as they once were.

About the Nowstalgia Gallery: Whilst our main focus is Furness, some photographs in this gallery were taken outside our core research area. They were captured by the same people based in Furness — photographers whose work we cherish, who captured the light and shadow of their times — and we believe they deserve to be shown and enjoyed by everyone, wherever they are in the world. We hope you find something to inspire you.
