EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage photograph of Salmon Fishing boats in Chepstow, as captured by the lens of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. The image transports us to an era long past, evoking the charm and allure of a bygone age. The tranquil scene is set against the backdrop of the picturesque town of Chepstow, nestled in the heart of the Cotswolds. The serene waters of the River Severn mirror the sky above, casting a gentle reflection on the surface. The boats, with their distinctive lanterns aglow, are a testament to the traditional methods of salmon fishing that once thrived in this area. The boats, with their weathered hulls and worn sails, exude a sense of history and character. The lanterns, casting a warm and inviting light, add a touch of romance and mystery to the scene. The fishermen, clad in Victorian and Edwardian attire, can be seen huddled around the boats, preparing their nets and gear for the night's catch. The photograph captures the essence of a time when life was simpler, when people lived in harmony with nature and the rhythms of the river. The Salmon Fishing boats of Chepstow were more than just a means of livelihood; they were a way of life, a connection to the land and the water that sustained them. This photograph is a precious reminder of the rich history and heritage of Salmon Fishing in Chepstow and the Cotswolds. It invites us to pause and reflect on the beauty and simplicity of a time long past, and to cherish the memories and traditions that continue to inspire us today.
