EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a street scene in Beckermet, a charming village nestled near Egremont in the picturesque county of Cumbria, England. The photograph, taken in the 1900s, transports us to a bygone era, filled with the simple pleasures and daily routines of rural life. The cobblestone street, lined with quaint cottages and shops, is bustling with activity. Children in their Sunday best playfully dart between the legs of adults, who engage in animated conversations as they go about their errands. Horses and carts laden with goods make their way through the narrow streets, while a man in a bowler hat walks his dog, adding to the lively scene. The village green, adorned with trees and a bandstand, serves as the heart of the community, where residents gather for social events and celebrations. In the distance, the rolling hills and lush greenery of the English countryside stretch out, providing a breathtaking backdrop to the bustling village life. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the history of Beckermet and the people who once called it home. It invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the rich cultural heritage that continues to thrive in this beautiful corner of Cumbria.
