We all love to have a look back at old photos and reminisce about days gone by.

In this feature, we have looked back through the photographic archives of the Coleraine and Ballymoney Times for snapshots of life in Ballintoy.

We found memories of Christmas dinner, Women’s Institute events, cheque presentations and outings.

See if you recognise anyone...
