EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the idyllic shores of Shaldon Beach and Bridge, Devon, captured in this print from September 1933. As a cherished piece of GWR publicity, this image showcases the timeless beauty of this coastal gem. Nestled on the shingle, it offers a glimpse into a bygone era when leisurely boat rides and sun-soaked summers were the epitome of relaxation. At low tide, boats gently rest upon the sandy beach, their vibrant colors contrasting against the serene backdrop. The bridge gracefully spans across the estuary, connecting Shaldon village with its lively counterpart Teignmouth on the other side. This vital link allowed locals and visitors alike to traverse effortlessly between these charming destinations. The photograph encapsulates an era when life moved at a slower pace; where families basked in warm sunshine while children built sandcastles along the river's edge. It transports us to simpler times filled with carefree laughter and joyous exploration. Preserved within STEAM Museum's collection, this snapshot serves as a poignant reminder of our rich heritage and evokes nostalgia for those who long for days spent by tranquil waters. Let your imagination wander as you immerse yourself in this remarkable scene that captures both history and natural beauty.
