EDITORS COMMENTS
Lower Slaughter MCF01_02_1089 captures the timeless beauty of this idyllic Cotswold village in Gloucestershire. The photograph showcases a picturesque view along the River Eye, with its crystal-clear waters gently flowing towards the horizon. Standing proudly amidst this tranquil scene is a charming clapper bridge known as Up Stream Bridge, its ancient stones gracefully connecting both sides of the river. In this image, our attention is drawn to a young boy sitting on the bridge, seemingly lost in his own thoughts. His presence adds an element of innocence and nostalgia to the composition, evoking memories of carefree childhood days spent exploring nature's wonders. Beyond the bridge lie rows of quaint houses that exude charm and character synonymous with traditional Cotswold architecture. These dwellings seem frozen in time, transporting us back to a bygone era when life moved at a slower pace. Katherine MacFee skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also the essence of Lower Slaughter during her 1920s visit. Her lens reveals an untouched rural landscape where serenity reigns supreme. This print from Historic England serves as a window into history, allowing us to appreciate and preserve these cherished moments for generations to come.
