The Murial Elms Collection

THE PRESTON & OLD PATCHAM SOCIETY is proud to be able to present The Murial Elms Collection, a very special set of photographs, slides and postcards that show old Patcham from days gone by.

We are lucky to have been been given the opportunity to digitise this collection of more than 100 images. We are currently showing a total of 30 images here in the site. Murial Elms is giving the collection to the Brighton & Hove Archaeological Society. We are very grateful for the loan of the material to display in our site.

Murial Elms built up this collection over a lifetime and used the slides to illustrate her talks on Patcham to local groups. The Collection is also well-known to local historians.
