EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Exeter's bustling High Street in the 1960s. The sun casts a warm glow on the red brick buildings, their windows filled with the wares of local shops. A sense of activity fills the air as buses and cars navigate the narrow streets, their horns occasionally honking in the background. Pedestrians, dressed in the fashion of the era, make their way along the pavement, some stopping to admire the various signs and shop windows. In the foreground, a policeman stands at attention near a kiosk, keeping a watchful eye on the traffic. The modern world is on the move, with the latest models of cars parked along the curb and a red bus making its way through the intersection. The clock on the building at the end of the street reminds us of the passing of time. This photograph captures the essence of Exeter in the 1960s, a time of change and progress in the West Country town. The cream-colored buildings, with their intricate details and large windows, stand in stark contrast to the sleek, contemporary designs of the vehicles on the road. The sunshine adds a sense of warmth and vitality to the scene, making it a true snapshot of history.
