EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1910, showcases a breathtaking scene along the Ingleton Road in Bentham, near Clapham, Yorkshire, England. The image, titled "The Big Stone - Ingleton Road & Shakey Bridge," transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of this picturesque region. At the heart of the scene lies the iconic Shakey Bridge, a charming stone archway that spans over a babbling brook. The bridge, a popular tourist attraction even a century ago, is a testament to the engineering prowess and creativity of the past. Its name is derived from the fact that the stones making up the bridge are set in such a way that they seem to 'shake' when weight is applied, adding an element of excitement and adventure for those crossing. Beside the bridge, the imposing Big Stone stands tall, its weathered surface etched with the passage of time. This natural wonder, a large, irregularly shaped boulder, has long been a source of fascination for locals and visitors alike. According to local folklore, the Big Stone was once used as a boundary marker between two neighboring estates. The multiview perspective of the photograph offers a unique and immersive experience, allowing us to take in the beauty of the scene from various angles. The lush greenery, clear waters, and the rugged terrain all come together to create a scene that is both serene and invigorating. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the enduring charm of the English countryside and the importance of preserving the stories and landmarks that define our history. The Big Stone and Shakey Bridge continue to captivate and inspire, inviting us to explore the wonders of the past and the beauty of the natural world.
