EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Cornhill shops in Bury St Edmunds, West Suffolk. The focal point of the image is the distinguished Boots store and Post Office located at 15 and 17-18 Cornhill. Steeped in history, the Boots store was meticulously constructed between 1910 and 1911 by Michael Vyne Treleaven, an esteemed architect employed by Boots. Its first-floor windows are adorned with statues sculpted by Gilbert Seale and Son Ltd. , depicting notable figures such as Agricola, St Edmund, Edward I, and Edward VI. Adjacent to this architectural gem stands the Post Office building which dates back to 1896. Designed by H Tanner from H M Office of Works, it exudes a timeless charm that perfectly complements its surroundings. In more recent years, number 15 Cornhill became home to W H Smith while the Post Office relocated next door to join forces with them. The year 2020 witnessed a remarkable transformation as the original Post Office building underwent redevelopment behind its historic facade. Today it proudly presents two commercial units along with residential flats. This photograph not only captures these magnificent structures but also encapsulates the essence of a bustling market town with its vibrant high street filled with shops catering to various needs. It serves as a testament to both Victorian architecture and Bury St Edmunds' rich heritage as a historic town.
