EDITORS COMMENTS
The Channel Islands - Rozel Harbour: A Glance into the Past This photograph, taken circa 1900, offers a breathtaking view of Rozel Harbour in Jersey, an idyllic location nestled on the north east coast of this British Crown dependency in the English Channel. The image, part of the Boswell Collection, showcases the picturesque scene of stone houses and the I-shaped quay that lines the sheltered cove. Rozel, situated in the parishes of St Martin and Trinity, was once a thriving area home to a small fishing fleet. In 1829, a harbour was constructed to accommodate the growing number of vessels involved in the oyster dredging fishery. This industry, which flourished in the clear waters surrounding the Channel Islands, unfortunately met its demise towards the end of the 19th century. The photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the charm and simplicity of Rozel Harbour during its heyday. The stone houses, with their slate roofs and whitewashed walls, cling to the steep hillside, while the quay, with its distinctive I-shape, extends into the calm, turquoise waters. The harbour, with its quaint character, once provided shelter and sustenance to the local community, making it an essential part of the history of the Channel Islands. This photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of Rozel Harbour and serves as a reminder of the beauty and allure that has drawn visitors to the Channel Islands for generations.
