I am intending to undertake a personal Saltwood photographic project which at this stage I am simply calling

'Saltwood People'

The project will involve the photographing during 2011/2012,  of a representative cross section of Saltwood connected people or groups. The postman, the vicar, the farmer, the doctor, the stationmaster, the
shopkeeper, the castle owner, the gamekeeper, the headmistress, the Parish Council, Saltwood Village Society, the scouts, the estate owner, the youngest, the oldest, etc, etc, etc, etc

Additionally, I have just commenced sourcing and copying photographic images of past Saltwood people which will be digitally retouched and which will form a complimentary addition to the 2011/2012 'Saltwood Faces' collection. The intention is to then photographically print (not computer print) a selection of the images on archive acid free paper.

I will at some time soon, post requests for any photographic images that anyone may have which show any Saltwood connected persons or groups of persons or photographs which just happen to include persons connected with Saltwood from any time in the past.

These original photographs will be copied and the originals returned to the owners.

The entire collection of new and old images, I intend to donate at a later date to Saltwood Village Society for their guardianship and archiving for future Saltwood generations.
