A search for Berkhamsted currently produces only the black and white pictures of Ashridge House, taken around 60 years ago - but looking very similar to its present incarnation.
However, the collection is expected to grow as more residents share their photos online.
Do you or your family have any old pictures of Berkhamsted lying around? What are the best and worst changes that have happened in the town since you've lived here? Tell us below or share your photos.
