EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Kirkstone Pass in the 1920s, as captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. The serene beauty of the Lake District in England's Cumbria region comes alive in this vintage photograph, with Kirkstone Pass serving as a picturesque gateway to the breathtaking landscapes that lie beyond. The scene is set against the backdrop of a crisp, clear day, with the sun casting long shadows over the undulating hills and valleys. The pass, a popular tourist destination even in the early 20th century, is adorned with quaint stone cottages and charming Victorian and Edwardian-era buildings. At the heart of the image, a charabanc bus makes its way up the winding road, its lantern illuminating the path for the passengers inside. The charabanc, a popular mode of transportation during the era, was often used for group outings and excursions, making it an essential part of the tourism industry in the region. The image transports us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of nature and community were cherished. The charm of the past is palpable in this evocative photograph, making it a must-have for anyone with a love for history, vintage travel, or the natural beauty of the Lake District.
