Hello and welcome to our latest exclusive Friday newsletter article.

This week we're focussing on amazing black and white photographs of Baldock from the air that are nearly 100 years old.

We all know Letchworth's Spirella Building is impressive - but have you seen the evocative black and white photographs of it from the air?

The Spirella Building was a former corset factory that fell into a derelict state, but it was saved and restored in 1996, and is now a business hub that is host to more than 20 thriving companies, all enjoying such sumptuous surroundings.

[B}LETCHWORTH AND BALDOCK[.B] Did you know that more than 110,000 people up and down the country including our sister site Hitchin Nub News have now signed up to our Nub News newsletter that our network of towns produce every week.
