1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: High Street, Burton upon Stather, Lincolnshire in the 1910s High Street, Burton upon Stather, Scunthorpe, near Crosby, Lincolnshire, England. (Rights Managed from Mary Evans Prints Online) Step back in time with this photograph of High Street, Burton upon Stather, in the 1910s. Located in the charming village of Burton upon Stather, in the North Lincolnshire region of England, this historic image offers a unique perspective into the daily life of this quaint English community during an era long past. The photograph reveals a bustling High Street, lined with a variety of shops and businesses, each with their own distinct character. The cobblestone road, worn smooth by the passage of countless horse-drawn carts and foot traffic, winds its way through the heart of the village. On the left, a butcher's shop displays fresh meats, while a baker's shop, with its inviting aroma of freshly baked bread, beckons passersby. Across the street, a grocer's store offers an array of goods, from jars of pickles to sacks of flour. At the far end of the High Street, the imposing figure of St. Peter's Church stands proudly, its spire reaching towards the heavens. The church, a testament to the village's rich history, has been a focal point for the community for centuries. The horse-drawn carts and carriages, a common sight in the early 20th century, add to the scene's authenticity. The villagers, dressed in their finest attire, go about their daily business, oblivious to the passing of time. This photograph is a precious reminder of a bygone era, when life moved at a slower pace, and communities were tightly knit, with the High Street serving as the heart of village life. It invites us to reflect on the changes that have taken place over the last century and to appreciate the rich history that continues to shape our world today.
