18 1/1 WE'VE put together Part Two of our gallery of old pictures from The Sixth Form College in Colchester. The college on North Hill has seen thousands of students pass through its corridors since it was established in 1987. The historic college building was first opened in 1912 and was originally home to the Gilberd School, which moved to Highwoods in 1980. Gilberd was previously one of three grammar schools in town before it was turned into a comprehensive.

6 1/1 WITH the announcement the Red Arrows may not be back for 2025, we've gone back into the archives to look at the Clacton Airshow through the years. Each year tends to build upon the last, with crowds of more than 200,000 typically descending on upon the town over the course of two days. The airshow is an event which bridges generations, adored by parents, grandparents and children alike. It works as both a celebration and commemoration of Britain’s history.

37 1/1 WE'VE gone back in to our archives to find these old photographs showing Colchester city centre as it looked in decades gone by. From old independent shops and restaurants which have long since disappeared, to trams carrying passengers across the city, the pictures show Colchester as a thriving centre. We'd love to know if any of these pictures bring back memories for you. Let us know in the comments below.
