EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of Royston Road in Baldock from the early 1900s. The quaint Edwardian scene captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the charm and simplicity of village life during this era.
In the foreground, a postman can be seen making his rounds, delivering mail to the residents of Royston Road. His uniform and leather satchel are reminiscent of a bygone era when postal delivery was done on foot or by bicycle.
A group of children play nearby, their faces filled with joy and innocence as they enjoy a carefree day in the sunshine. Their vintage clothing and playful antics add to the nostalgic feel of the image.
The architecture along Royston Road is typical of Victorian design, with ornate details and decorative features that speak to an age when craftsmanship was highly valued. Lanterns line the street, casting a warm glow over the cobblestone path below.
This print is not just a snapshot from history; it is a window into another world where life moved at a slower pace and community connections were strong. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has preserved this piece of history for future generations to appreciate and enjoy.
