Author William Smith.
Permission
(Reusing this file)		 I've spoken to Peter Roughan of the Radcliffe Local History Society. He is the person who restored the original glass print, which was apparently broken in two. He does not know the date that William Smith (the original photographer) died, and knows of nobody else who would be able to help - he thinks that whoever took the photograph would have died well before 1939. Frank Sunderland, author of 'The Book of Radcliffe', who was librarian at the time the print was restored (presumably it was under his care) has passed away. I do not know of any other means of enquiry I can use to ascertain the copyright status of the photograph, and so in my opinion (although I am certainly not an expert on copyright) I think the image is public domain.
