The Suffolk Photographic Survey was an initiative made by Robert Pratt, of Capel St Mary in Suffolk, England in 1954. Its aim was to establish a collection of photographic images of sufficient variety to reflect the variety to be found in the history of Suffolk.[1] Under the aegis of the Suffolk Local History Council the collection had grown significantly. In 1973 the collection was held at the Abbot's Hall Museum - subsequently the Museum of East End Life and now The Food Museum.[2] In 1976 the collection was rehoused in the care of the Suffolk Record Office facilities then located in the former Bramford Road School.[3]
