MORE than 6,000 photographs of scenes from Chelsfield, Orpington and Green Street Green are set to go on display to the public.
The pictures span 140 years of the area's history and were collected by photographer Philip Lane.
His collection began in 1975 when he uncovered pictures taken of shops in Chelsfield in 1862. Special techniques have been used to restore many of the photographs.
The Chelsfield Collection will be on display at Chelsfield Village Hall on October 27, from 10am to 8pm, and October 28, from 10am to 5pm. Admission is £1 and young children will be admitted free.
