EDITORS COMMENTS
The Marketplace in Penrith, Cumbria, as seen looking northward in the late 1910s, captures the charm and history of this picturesque market town. The photograph showcases the Marketplace Square, a bustling hub of activity where locals and visitors alike gathered to buy and sell goods. The marketplace was the heart of Penrith's commercial and social life, and the image reveals a vibrant scene filled with people and horses. On the left side of the square, the old building with its intricate facade and ornate details stands proudly, a testament to the rich history of the town. This building, unfortunately, was soon to be demolished to make way for the Midland Bank, which can be seen under construction in the background. The clocktower, a distinctive feature of Penrith's skyline, looms large in the distance, adding to the sense of history and tradition. The Marketplace Square was a popular gathering place for the community, and the photograph offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the sights, sounds, and atmosphere of a bygone era. The Marketplace in Penrith continues to be a focal point of the town, and visitors today can still experience the charm and character that is so evident in this photograph taken over a century ago.
