EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Northampton New South Bridge in the early 1900s, as captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. This vintage image transports us to a bygone era in Northamptonshire, England, during the Victorian and Edwardian periods. The New South Bridge, built in 1832, is a significant historical landmark in Northampton. This iron bridge replaced the old timber bridge and was a major engineering feat of its time. The bridge's elegant design, with its distinctive wrought-iron arches and ornate railings, is a testament to the engineering prowess of the period. In this photograph, we see the bridge in all its glory, with the River Nene flowing calmly beneath it. The image is filled with a sense of tranquility, as horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians make their way across the bridge, oblivious to the passing of time. The trees lining the riverbank are in full bloom, adding a splash of color to the monochrome scene. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the daily life of Northampton during the early 1900s. We can see people dressed in Victorian and Edwardian attire, going about their business or enjoying a leisurely stroll. The scene is completed by the quaint shops and houses that line the riverbank, their facades adorned with intricate details and ornate designs. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical record of Northampton's past. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who crossed the bridge over a century ago and to appreciate the enduring beauty of this iconic landmark.
