Tour of Stamford (Lincolnshire) 1970 (no audio) 

my home town looking great.

This is fantastic. So interesting to see how much, and how little, has actually changed.

Looks pretty similar to now really, just the cars and some shops, awesome to see Stamford back then

Apart from the cars, driving through the high street and the parking on broad street, not a great deal has changed.

Just started at Stamford Tech in Sept 1970. Lived with parents in St Georges Square. Passed my driving test in Stamford same year. Most youths hung around Red Lion Square where the road was black from burnt rubber of Mini wheels skidding as owners let the clutch in sharply!

So cool and so few cars around! Thanks for uploading this...

Ah yes I remember it well, I would have been 13 then and as everybody else says, apart from a few changes to shops, streets and traffic it's mostly the same now.

My fav town in the county I love it

That was some Red Coat!

Amazing. I was born in 1987 so it's similar but quite different now - you recognise the streets (HSBC/Midland Bank, Walkers, NatWest) but there are noticable changes, I wonder when the High St was pedestrianised?

I bet those new neighbourhoods around Caithness Road didn't exist by then!!

There's still one pre-Worboy road sign in the centre of Stamford.

I live in Stamford

Not much different
