Cromer, February 4th 1868: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken on February 4th, 1868, offers a rare and enchanting glimpse into the quaint seaside town of Cromer as it once was during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages, elegant Victorian attire, and the simple pleasures of a day at the seaside. The photograph showcases the picturesque Cromer Pier, adorned with colorful boats and a quaint, wooden pier extending out into the North Sea. The pier, a popular attraction even in the late 19th century, was a hub of activity for both locals and visitors alike. In the foreground, a horse-drawn carriage makes its way along the beach, its passengers bundled up against the winter chill. The town of Cromer, located in Norfolk, England, was a favorite destination for Victorian and Edwardian families seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. The town's natural beauty, combined with its charming seaside atmosphere, made it an ideal location for a relaxing getaway. As we examine this photograph, we can almost hear the sound of the waves crashing against the shore, feel the crisp winter air on our faces, and imagine the laughter and joy of families enjoying a day at the seaside. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures and enduring charm of a bygone era.
