The Rex Cadman Collection of Glass Plate images is a fascinating collection of photographs of Kent from 1936 to the 1960s. Actress Diana Dors filming in Kent, Canterbury floods in the 1950s, military and civilian preparation for WW2, romantic snow scenes and various landmarks across the County - it's all there!

Showing all kinds of photos from this period, it's very easy to lose yourself for a few hours scrolling through!
