Hello, and thanks for dropping by. The aim of this personal street photography project is to create a record of all the 148 named streets and developments in the former township of Bowdon, now part of Altrincham in the borough of Trafford, Greater Manchester (click here to see some area maps of Bowdon or here for a street map).
I'm about to start photographing all the streets again over spring and summer 2022 with the intention of gradually compiling a portfolio of every street in every season. I'm going to try and make the photos a bit more "creative" this time around! Thanks for all your supportive comments so far, and do keep your eyes peeled for a geezer in a high-vis vest with a camera. He's perfectly harmless.
This website continues to be developed, so every time you visit it there may be something new to see. It seems to work best with Google Chrome.

Do you have an interesting story about the street in Bowdon where you live?
How long have you lived there? What's changed over the years? Any interesting (or otherwise) trivia that you'd like to share?

I'm relieved to say that all the updates to the website necessitated by the hosting company's recent (unilateral) decision to restrict the length of photo captions to 150 characters is now, hopefully, complete.
However, if you encounter any truncated text, please let me know! Any comments/inputs as always greatly appreciated (and acknowledged).
I might now be able to start photographing again.
