EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to October 1968, capturing the far end of the north side of Spon Street in all its nostalgic glory. Standing proudly at numbers 159-162, these shops tell a story of their own. However, time has taken its toll on these once vibrant establishments, as they now stand in desperate need of restoration. The architecture showcased here is a true representation of the era it belongs to – the swinging sixties. The buildings exude a unique charm and character that transports us back to a time when bell-bottoms and psychedelic colors were all the rage. Amongst this vintage backdrop, our attention is drawn to one mature man standing alone. His presence adds an air of mystery and intrigue to this scene frozen in time. What could he be contemplating as he gazes upon these worn-out storefronts? Is he reminiscing about days gone by or envisioning a brighter future for this forgotten corner? As we explore further into the frame, we notice prominent signs for Barblale Wine Lodge and Birchley Furnishing - remnants of businesses that once thrived within these walls. These faded advertisements serve as reminders that commerce was once bustling along this street. While commercial use may no longer define these premises today, this photograph reminds us of their historical significance and invites us to imagine what life might have been like during those transformative years half a century ago.
