EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a bygone era, specifically the 22nd of February in 1934. The image showcases the Hindley toll gate, an iconic landmark nestled in Lancashire, Greater Manchester. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are transported to a time when horse-drawn carts were a common sight on the roads. Intriguingly, it seems that this toll gate played a significant role in regulating traffic and collecting charges for passage. A majestic horse stands patiently beside the cart as its owner awaits his turn to pay the toll fee. The gate itself exudes an air of authority with its sturdy construction and imposing presence. As we reflect upon this scene frozen in time, it becomes evident that this photograph captures not only a moment but also represents an entire era characterized by simplicity and reliance on traditional modes of transportation. It serves as a reminder of how far our society has progressed technologically since then. Memory Lane Prints presents us with yet another remarkable piece of history through their collection.
