EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the derelict shops of numbers 25 and 26 Barton Street in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire. Taken from a southern perspective, the front elevation showcases the remnants of these once bustling Georgian houses turned shops. The image reveals a glimpse into the past, as it dates back to the 1950s. The worn-out buildings stand as silent witnesses to their former glory days. With cracked walls and broken windows, they exude an air of melancholy that is both haunting and intriguing. A solitary lamppost stands tall amidst this desolation, casting a faint glow on the forgotten storefronts. A ladder leans against one of the decaying facades, hinting at attempts made to revive these abandoned spaces. The sash windows tell tales of bygone eras when shoppers would peer through them in search of treasures within. However, progress eventually caught up with these dilapidated structures. Numbers 25 and 26 were demolished alongside numbers 27 and 28 to make way for Tewkesbury's new Police Station in 1966. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that even though time may erase physical structures, it cannot diminish their significance or our fascination with them. It invites us to reflect on how places evolve over time while preserving fragments of history within their walls.
