Bournville Cadbury Cadburys Chocolate Panorama
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this stunning panoramic view of Bournville Village, captured in a vintage lantern slide from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online. This enchanting image transports us to an earlier era, showcasing the picturesque village landscape as it appeared during the Victorian and Edwardian periods. Nestled in the heart of the scene, the grandeur of the chocolate factory stands proudly, its red-brick walls and chimneys rising against the backdrop of the rolling green hills and meandering river. The factory, a testament to the industrial revolution, was the brainchild of Quaker entrepreneur, George Cadbury. His vision of creating a model village for his workers, where they could live in comfortable homes, enjoy good health, and have access to education and recreational facilities, was truly revolutionary. The village, with its tree-lined streets, well-kept gardens, and charming cottages, is a sight to behold. The image reveals the quaint village life, with residents going about their daily routines, children playing in the streets, and the village green bustling with activity. The tranquility of the scene is further enhanced by the presence of horse-drawn carts and carriages, adding to the sense of timelessness. This panoramic view offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and charm of Bournville Village as it once was. The image is a treasure trove of history, transporting us to an era of simplicity, community, and industrial innovation.
