Local photographer Mat Troke has combined pictures from the past with the modern-day landscape in these unique pictures, so we can appreciate how much, or how little, areas of the town have changed over the decades.
Have a look through this gallery and see how different areas have aged over the past 100 years.
In these confusing and worrying times, local journalism is more vital than ever.
Thanks to everyone who helps us ask the questions that matter by taking out a subscription or buying a paper.
