EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Cary Parade in Torquay, Devon, circa 1900s. The image transports us to a bygone era, filled with the charm and character of a bustling Victorian seaside town. At the heart of the scene, the imposing St. Marychurch Church stands proudly, its Gothic Revival architecture a striking contrast against the clear blue sky. The church, with its intricate stonework and tall spire, has been a landmark of the community since the 19th century. The parade itself is a vibrant and lively scene, with people going about their daily business. Horse-drawn carts and carriages line the cobblestone streets, while children play and adults engage in conversation. The shops and businesses along the parade are a mix of the practical and the exotic, from grocers and bakers to haberdasheries and toy stores. Torquay, part of the English Riviera, was a popular holiday destination in the 1900s, and the town's elegant promenade, beautiful gardens, and sandy beaches drew visitors from all over the country. The photograph captures the essence of this bygone era, offering a glimpse into the history and heritage of Torbay. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and character of Cary Parade in Torquay, Devon, during the 1900s.
