Enjoy the view of Staffordshire from above with our 1940s aerial photograph collection. These fascinating images shed light on long lost landmarks, the ways the landscape has been reshaped and the ways it has stayed the same!

Our spotlight talks take place in the Staffordshire History Centre exhibition space – there is no need to book, just come along. These short 15 minute talks are designed to introduce visitors to highlights from our collections.

This is a free event but all donations support us to care for our collections.
