It was the decade of Dynasty, big shoulder pads and even bigger hair.

The 80s is one the defining decades of the 20th century - and we captured it on film.

Take a look above at our gallery which stretches the length of the decade, with lots of images, in particular, from the second half.

There are scouts, swimmers, schools, presentations, sports, safety awards, races, charity cheques and more with thousands of faces from Huddersfield captured within the pictures.

Just click above to take a look though our bumper galleries of the 80s - were you there?
