EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the quaint town of Broxbourne, Hertfordshire in 1911, showcases the picturesque view of The Crown Hotel from the bridge. The image transports us back in time to the early 1900s, a period of significant change and growth in the region. The Crown Hotel, with its red-brick facade and distinctive white sign, stands proudly on the right bank of the River Lea. The bridge, a sturdy structure of iron and timber, arches gracefully over the river, connecting the two banks and providing a vantage point for this enchanting view. The river, swollen with winter rain, reflects the vibrant colors of the autumn leaves, adding to the scene's natural beauty. The town of Broxbourne, situated in the heart of Hertfordshire, was a popular destination for travelers during the early 1900s. The Crown Hotel, with its welcoming atmosphere and prime location, would have been a natural choice for weary travelers seeking a place to rest and rejuvenate. The bridge, an essential connection for both pedestrians and horses, would have been a bustling hub of activity, linking the town to the surrounding countryside and beyond. This photograph, with its rich history and timeless charm, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to imagine the stories of the people and events that once unfolded on the banks of the River Lea in Broxbourne, Hertfordshire.
