EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: High Street, Criccieth, Wales, 1912 - Davies-Hughes Medical Hall, Chemists High Street, Criccieth, a charming seaside town nestled in the heart of Cardiganshire, Wales, is captured in this photograph dating back to 1912. The image reveals a bustling scene of horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians, as they navigate the cobblestone street, lined with shops and businesses. Among the various establishments, Davies-Hughes Medical Hall, Chemists, stands proudly, its signage prominently displayed. The Davies-Hughes Medical Hall was a vital part of the community, serving as both a pharmacy and a medical supply store. The chemists provided essential medicines, remedies, and health-related products to the residents of Criccieth and the surrounding areas. This was an era before the widespread availability of modern medical facilities and advanced pharmaceuticals, making the role of local chemists like Davies-Hughes even more crucial. The architectural details of the building itself are noteworthy, with its ornate facade and large, arched windows. The intricate design elements suggest a sense of craftsmanship and attention to detail, reflecting the pride and care taken in the construction of buildings during this time. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the history and charm of High Street, Criccieth, and the vital role that Davies-Hughes Medical Hall played in the daily lives of its residents over a century ago.
