EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the hustle and bustle of Norwich Market in the summer of 1948. Taken by renowned photographer Hallam Ashley in July of that year, the image offers a glimpse into the urban life of Norwich, Norfolk during a time of post-war recovery. The marketplace, a vibrant hub of activity, is filled with people going about their daily business. Stalls laden with fresh produce, meats, and flowers line the cobblestone streets, attracting customers with their colorful displays. The marketgoers, dressed in their Sunday best, move about with purpose, engaging in lively conversations and bartering for the best deals. Children play and laugh in the background, adding a sense of joy and innocence to the scene. The atmosphere is one of community and connection, as people come together to buy and sell, share stories, and strengthen the bonds of friendship. The photograph also serves as a testament to the resilience of the people of Norwich.
