Enid Stamp Taylor at Home…
I think it is something of an importance to include this picture of Enid taken in 1934 whilst she relaxed with those around her that really mattered in her life. The shot was taken in the back garden of her … Continue reading
Looking Back…
My Family from left to right: Anya Callaghan, Adrian Callaghan, Michelle Ford, and Shannon Callaghan. Taken at Kensington Gardens, Bayswater, London in the late 90s… Shannon is now a teenager!
Vintage Movies… Pool of London 1950
A wonderfully evocative film drama of London and The London Docklands in 1950. Shot almost entirely with locations on The Thames and around Central London– it’s a look into a times past world! There are so many dramatic and nostalgic locations in the production- that … Continue reading

Home Thoughts of Enid Stamp Taylor…
I stood outside The People’s Palace on The Mile End road, one hot July afternoon in 1980. Somehow standing there I could feel her presence on that wintry evening all those years ago. She would have been hesitant, afraid, and yet … Continue reading
Deleted Scene…
