See http://www.scienceandsociety.co.uk/results.asp?txtkeys1=Sutcliffe,+Frank+Meadow and the much more commercial and detailed official Sutcliffe Gallery at: http://www.sutcliffe-gallery.co.uk/ Douglas Sharp knows a lot more about him than I do, but he (FMS) chronicled Whitby over a period when life was starting to change beyond recognition. His pictures are of a vanishing world. The photo wasn't intended as a reproduction of any particular image, but he was certainly in my mind when I took it.
