EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, taken in Plaistow Lane, Widmore End, near Bromley in South East London during the year 1911, captures a moment of simple joy and innocence from the early 20th century. The image features a woman, dressed in a long, flowing skirt and blouse, as she walks along the cobblestone lane, pushing a perambulator or pram, carrying a young baby inside. The nanny, dressed in a dark, practical outfit, follows closely behind, ensuring the safety and comfort of her charge. The scene is set against the backdrop of a quaint English village, with houses lined along the lane, their brick facades adorned with ivy and other greenery. The trees lining the street are bare, revealing the skeletal branches against the clear blue sky, indicating the approach of winter. The horse-drawn cart in the distance adds to the sense of a bygone era, further emphasizing the historical significance of the image. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the residents of Plaistow Lane, Widmore End, during the 1910s. It provides a window into the past, allowing us to imagine the simple pleasures and routines of a time long past. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of family, care, and the simple joys of everyday life.
