Elmfield College | York

Letters, photos, school magazine and other artefacts many from York and Yorkshire and with a primitive Methodist theme.
I live in what used to be Elmfield College, York (1863-1902), and have in my living room several crates of documents relating to the First World War period. These include letters from the front and many photographs. I hope to upload these over the next few months.
