Lilian Ream was a remarkable woman who ran a number of businesses in Wisbech including the Borough Studio. She started her photographic career, at the age of 17, as an apprentice to Alfred Drysdale, a Wisbech photographer and, after working with a number of other local firms, she started her own studio in 1909. In time she took over the photographic businesses in Wisbech and became a well-known figure in the area until her retirement, at the age of 72, in 1949. The family firm she built continued until 1971 and over this period she amassed a large collection of photographic negatives. Lilian Ream is laid to rest in the cemetery at All Saints Church.  The galleries of her works on this web-page are a tribute to her.  It also gives us the opportunity to show some old pictures of Wisbech.  We are interested in Wisbech & Walsoken pictures
