EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and feast your eyes on this enchanting scene from a bygone era: The Village Fair in Weeton, Preston, near Kirkham and Blackpool, Lancashire, England, during the 1900s. This photograph, taken in the early 20th century, transports us back in time to an era of simple pleasures and community spirit.

The photograph reveals a bustling scene of colorful tents and attractions, filled with the sounds of laughter and the aroma of delicious treats. In the foreground, a group of children, dressed in their Sunday best, eagerly await their turn on the merry-go-round, their eyes wide with wonder and anticipation. Nearby, a man in a striped shirt and bowler hat operates a calliope organ, its music adding to the festive atmosphere. Further back, a Ferris wheel towers over the scene, its bright lights illuminating the faces of those riding atop its carriages. The smell of popcorn, cotton candy, and other delectable treats wafts through the air, drawing in even more visitors. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of community and the simple joys of a day at the fair. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people in the scene and the memories they created on this magical day in Weeton, Lancashire, England, during the 1900s.
