Iconic Plymouth area through the years in 37 photographs

by · PlymouthLive

It's time for our weekly journey into the past, and this week we're focusing on Plymstock.

Whether you were a student at Plymstock School in the 1940s or participated in St Mary's Playgroup sponsored toddle at Plymstock Broadway on March 25, 1981, you might just spot yourself in this gallery.

We hope these images bring back some fond memories. If you recognise yourself or someone else in the photos, we'd love to hear more about the story behind the picture.

If you have any old photos that you'd like us to feature in our next nostalgia piece, please send them to news@plymouthherald.co.uk. We look forward to seeing them!
