EDITORS COMMENTS
Reginald's Tower, a medieval gem in the heart of Waterford City, Republic of Ireland, stands proudly against the backdrop of a bustling street scene from the 1970s. Dating back to 1003 AD, this historic round tower is one of the oldest structures in Ireland and a testament to the country's rich heritage and middle ages history. The tower, named after Reginald's son, King Reginald, was originally built as a defensive structure to protect the city from Viking invasions. Its distinctive round shape, made entirely of large, rough-hewn stones, has withstood the test of time and continues to be a popular tourist attraction today. In this colorful and vibrant image from the John Hinde Archive, we see the tower nestled among the buildings of Waterford City. People go about their daily business on the street below, adding a sense of life and energy to the scene. The image captures the essence of Ireland's past and present, showcasing the country's rich history and vibrant culture. The 1970s were an era of change and progress, and this image offers a glimpse into a time when the old and the new coexisted. The tower, a relic of the past, stands tall and proud, a reminder of the country's rich heritage and the middle ages. The colorful and lively street scene around it speaks to the vitality and energy of the present. This photograph is a beautiful representation of Ireland's past and present, a testament to the country's enduring history and the strength and resilience of its people. It invites us to explore the wonders of Waterford City and the Republic of Ireland, and to appreciate the beauty and richness of its heritage.
