EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of Burnley Road in Bacup, taken in the early 1900s. The image captures a bygone era, showcasing the quaint charm and bustling activity of this Lancashire town during the Victorian and Edwardian periods.
As you gaze upon the vintage scene, you can almost hear the clip-clop of horse-drawn carriages and smell the aroma of coal smoke wafting through the air. The architecture reflects a time when craftsmanship and attention to detail were paramount, with ornate facades lining the street.
The people captured in this photograph are dressed in their finest attire, exuding an air of sophistication and elegance that was characteristic of English society at that time. From bowler hats to long skirts, every detail tells a story about life in Bacup over a century ago.
This snapshot from history is not just a visual treat but also a valuable historical document that offers insight into daily life in Rossendale. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed since then while also highlighting some enduring aspects of community spirit and resilience.
The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has preserved this piece of local history for future generations to appreciate and learn from. Take a moment to immerse yourself in the past through this evocative glimpse into Bacup's early days.
