It is possible that E.M. Gibson left these photographs at the College when she retired from teaching there. Photographs relate to her work in designing new planting around the Administration Building and a general record of what the whole site looked like during this time. Various numbering systems have been used on reverse of photographs but the most consistent one has been used for cataloguing and sorting. These photographs include some of the missing ones from Series 1, 2, 4, 6 and 76 in B09.0005 and are the same as those in the negatives B09.0001. Possibly one person (J.L. Provan?) has taken the photographs and E.M. Gibson has picked out the ones she wanted. See B09.0005 for slides that have been made of these photographsCollection of black and white photographs stored in a photograph album with plastic pockets. These have been removed and replaced in archival album. Handwritten description attached in T.H. Kneen's writing identifying some of the photographs. Also his handwriting on reverse of many of the photographs. Identified as THK in catalogue. Some photographs have descriptions handwritten on reverse in different handwriting presumed to be that of E.M. Gibson. Identified in catalogue as EMG.See separate cataloguet.h. kneen, e.m. gibson, teacher, administration building, j.l. provan, rock point, luffmann ponds, lily ponds, entrance, garden views, hilda kirkhope rockery, sequioa sempervirens, orchard border, orchard, students working outside

2 pages of a photograph album with small photographs pasted on both sides of the page, some labelled. Includes roll of negatives. Page 1: 1-36A "Burnley - Feb-Apr 1942", 37-55A "June '42", 56-62A "Sept '42." Page 2: "Sept '42 (cont)." These photographs are identical with many of those in B09.0005, but smaller. Therefore probably this is also J.L. Provan's album. See B09.0005 also for slides of these photos.negatives labelled, "Burnley Sept.
