EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Chideock MCF01_02_0857" transports us back to the quaint village of Chideock in West Dorset, Dorset during the 1920s. The image captures a picturesque scene along Main Street, as we gaze westward from the charming bridge that spans over the River Winniford. In this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to two figures standing outside Bridge Cottage. They appear engrossed in conversation or perhaps admiring their surroundings. A vintage van parked nearby adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene, reminding us of an era when road transport was simpler yet equally significant. The focal point of this delightful street view is undoubtedly Holgate Household Stores. Nestled within Bridge Cottage's premises, it exudes an inviting charm with its traditional facade and display windows showcasing various wares. One can only imagine what treasures lie within those walls - everyday essentials for villagers or perhaps unique curiosities that pique one's curiosity. Katherine MacFee's expertly captured photograph allows us to step into a bygone era where life moved at a slower pace and community spirit thrived on these very streets. It serves as a testament to both her artistic talent and her ability to capture the essence of Chideock's rich history. As we admire this remarkable piece from Historic England's collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its power to transport us through time and connect us with generations past
