EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of High Street, Colchester, Essex from the early 1910s. The bustling street is lined with charming shops and historic buildings, showcasing the rich heritage of this East Anglian town. In the distance, the iconic clock tower stands tall against the sky, a timeless symbol of Colchester's past. As you take in the scene, you can almost hear the sounds of horse-drawn carriages clattering along the road and see pedestrians strolling along the pavement. A bus and tram add to the hustle and bustle of daily life in this vibrant community. This snapshot captures a moment frozen in time, offering a glimpse into what life was like over a century ago in one of England's oldest recorded towns. The architecture and atmosphere evoke a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when things moved at a slower pace. The John Barrett Collection has preserved this piece of history for us to admire and reflect upon. It serves as a reminder that while much has changed since then, some things remain constant – like the enduring charm of High Street in Colchester, Essex.
