EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Goodshaw Church and School, nestled in the picturesque village of Crawshawbooth, Rossendale, during the early 1900s. This vintage photograph, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the charm and simplicity of a bygone era. The image reveals a quaint stone church, with its tall, pointed spire reaching towards the sky, standing proudly against the backdrop of the rolling hills and lush greenery. The school, located to the right of the church, is a testament to the importance of education in the community during this period. Children in their neatly pressed uniforms can be seen playing outside, while others are engaged in their lessons within the classroom walls. The Edwardian and Victorian eras, which straddled the turn of the 20th century, were marked by a sense of optimism and progress. This photograph captures the essence of that time, with its focus on tradition, community, and the simple joys of rural life. The image invites us to imagine the daily routines and stories of the people who once called Goodshaw Church and School their home. This photograph is not only a historical document but also a work of art, with its soft focus, natural lighting, and intricate details. It is a reminder of the rich history and heritage that surrounds us, and a testament to the enduring power of photography to transport us to another time and place.
