1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: High Street, Acton, Ealing, London, 1902 This photograph, taken in 1902, offers a rare glimpse into the history of High Street, Acton, located in the London Borough of Ealing, near the picturesque Bedford Park area in the County of London, England.

The photograph reveals a vibrant scene filled with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians, all going about their daily business. The High Street is lined with a variety of shops, each with unique signs and wares on display. The architecture of the buildings is predominantly Victorian, with intricate brickwork, ornate details, and slate roofs. In the background, the grandeur of Bedford Park can be seen, with its elegant houses and lush greenery providing a striking contrast to the hustle and bustle of the High Street.
