EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Fore Street in Bampton, Devon, circa 1908. The quaint English village, nestled in the heart of Devonshire, exudes a charming and idyllic atmosphere. The cobblestone street is lined with various shops and businesses, each with its unique character and charm. At the heart of the scene, a butcher shop can be seen, its red and white striped awning extending out onto the street. The ironmonger's shop, with its intricate wrought-iron sign and display of various hardware items, adds to the rustic charm of the scene. A cycle hire shop, with bicycles neatly arranged outside, suggests the village's connection to the surrounding countryside and the freedom it offers for exploration. The Angel Inn, with its distinctive white horse sign, stands proudly at the end of the street. The inn, a popular gathering place for locals and travelers alike, has been a fixture in Bampton for centuries. The cartridges displayed outside the shop window hint at the importance of hunting and shooting sports in the area during this time. The horse-drawn carts and bicycles parked along the street add to the sense of movement and activity, while the people in period clothing, going about their daily business, bring the scene to life. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of rural English life in the early 1900s.
