EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, taken by Aerofilms Ltd in July 1949, offers a unique bird's-eye view of Ashbourne, a charming market town nestled in the heart of Derbyshire. The image showcases the town's rich architectural heritage and vibrant community life. At the centre of the frame stands the Church of St. John the Baptist, its distinctive red-tiled roof and tall spire rising proudly against the sky. This Grade I listed building, with its intricate Gothic Revival architecture, has been a landmark of Ashbourne since the 14th century. To the left, the Market Place comes alive with activity. The cobbled square, bordered by historic buildings and quaint shops, has been the heart of Ashbourne's bustling market scene for centuries. The weekly market, which still takes place today, attracts visitors from far and wide to sample local produce and unique crafts. To the right, the Cattle Market, a more recent addition to Ashbourne's history, is also visible. Established in the late 19th century, the market played a crucial role in the town's agricultural industry. Today, it serves as a popular venue for antique fairs and other events. The River Henmore, meandering through the town, adds to the picturesque scene. The image captures the essence of Ashbourne's rich history and vibrant community, providing a fascinating glimpse into the past and the present.
