Last week we look back at images from 1970s and 1980s in Colchester and this week we've jumped forward another decade.

We have gone back in our archives to look at the town in the 1990s.

And back then the town looked very different to how it does now.

The Odeon was then in Crouch Street and Woolworths was a top shopping destination.

If you grew up in the 90s you'll probably remember trips to Leisure World and Quasar.

So scroll through some of our favourite images of what it was like to live in Colchester in the nineties.

If you could bring one thing back to north Essex from the 90s, what would it be?

We'd love to hear what you have to say.

Do you have pictures of yourself at the place in question?
