The Peacock, Rowsley, Derbyshire, 1939
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the essence of a bygone era in British history. This stunning photograph showcases the timeless beauty of an old country inn nestled amidst the picturesque village of Rowsley. The building's architectural grandeur reflects its seventeenth-century origins, standing as a testament to centuries of British heritage. In this scene, we see a group of men gathered outside The Peacock, engrossed in conversation and perhaps enjoying their leisurely time at this historic pub. A horse-drawn carriage stands nearby, symbolizing the traditional mode of transportation prevalent during that period. Nature gracefully embraces the inn's exterior with climbing plants adorning its walls. The vibrant green foliage adds a touch of color to this otherwise monochromatic image. Against this backdrop lies the serene countryside landscape - rolling hills and meadows stretching into the distance. The print evokes nostalgia for simpler times when life moved at a slower pace. It invites us to imagine stepping back in time and experiencing firsthand the charm and warmth that emanated from such establishments. This remarkable piece is part of "Old Inns - Second Series" curated by W. D & H. O Wills in 1939. Preserved through ages on an aged cigarette card, it serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic representation capturing Britain's cultural heritage for future generations to appreciate and cherish.
