St George's 1927


The front of this Whit Friday programme from 1927 shows how St George's churchyard use to look before the railings around several graves were removed.

See how it looks from a similar viewpoint now on Hyde Daily Photo.

Details of the early history of St George's can be found at The Annals of Hyde: St George's Church

    What a difference the years make. I am so glad I went back and looked at your shot of the church. I just love this bulletin. What a treasure.

    What a treasure to see this old programme, and in such good condition for its age!
