Glenys Randle was given this photograph of Lenton Football Club. The person passing it on to her didn't know when the photographs were taken or the names of anyone in the photographs. On the back of the photograph was written 'Lenton F.C. taken on Boots Ground Lady Bay'. Clearly the team is posing for its photograph in front of the Boots clubhouse which was erected in 1922, which gives us an earliest possible date. The card mounting on to which the photograph was set carries the stamp of 'A.D. Thornton 34 Exchange Walk'. So we also know who took the photo.

We would obviously like to discover who the players were and an approximate era when the photograph might have been taken. Can you help

Glenys Randle was also given this second photograph of Lenton Football Club. On the back of this second photograph someone has written 'Lenton F.C.' and 'R. Wolfe 43 Lonsdale Rd. Nottingham' in ink and someone else has added in pencil 'W. West 20 Poynton St., Wollaton St'. Quite what the purpose behind adding these two sets of names and addresses to the photograph is not clear. The one person who is clearly present in both photographs is the gentleman with a towel over his left arm.
