All human life is here whenever we have a rummage in our photo archives.

Today we have a selection of Cumbrian snapshots from the 1970s to the ’90s.

Where else could you see the Lakeland Princesses of 1973, pupils from St Aidan's school ready for a yomp in Little Langdale, young Silloth scientists working on a rocket project – and the lucky woman who won a Vauxhall Chevette on Sale of the Century.
