EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to a serene summer day in Fairford, Gloucestershire, in August 1925. The image beautifully captures two children standing on a bridge, their curious eyes fixed on the picturesque Mill Pond and the gentle flow of River Coln beneath them. As they lean over the railing, their youthful innocence is palpable against the backdrop of this idyllic countryside scene. In the distance, St Mary's Church stands proudly amidst its surroundings, adding a touch of timeless charm to this snapshot frozen in time. Beyond that lies Mill Lane, inviting wanderers to explore further into this quaint village. The photograph exudes tranquility and nostalgia as it transports us back nearly a century ago. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children found joy in simple pleasures like observing nature's wonders and exploring their local surroundings. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved by STEAM Museum, we are reminded not only of Fairford's natural beauty but also how important it is to cherish our heritage. This print encapsulates an era long gone yet forever etched within our collective memory—a testament to both human curiosity and Mother Nature's enduring allure.
