EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 1950s in Bristol, United Kingdom. The image showcases a nostalgic scene of dray horses parading down King Street, originating from Georges Bristol Bridge brewery on Bath Street. These magnificent animals were an integral part of the city's transportation system during that era. Georges Brewery had been brewing beer in Bristol since 1788, but their legacy came to an end when they sold out to Courages in 1961. Sadly, the brewery closed its doors for good in 1999. Today, the site is covered with modern flats and apartments, serving as a reminder of how times have changed. This photograph evokes a sense of nostalgia and transports us back to a bygone era where these majestic creatures played a vital role in delivering goods throughout the bustling streets of Bristol. It captures not only the essence of street life in the 1950s but also pays homage to an industry that once thrived within this vibrant city. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let it serve as a reminder of our rich history and how far we've come since then. The dray horses may no longer roam these streets, but their memory lives on through images like this one – reminding us of simpler times and cherished traditions.
