EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lantern slide print of the Plan of Bournville village offers a fascinating glimpse into the early days of this iconic community. Designed by George Cadbury in the late 19th century, Bournville village was created as a model village for workers at the nearby Cadbury chocolate factory. The carefully planned layout included spacious homes surrounded by green spaces and amenities such as schools, shops, and recreational facilities.
The intricate details captured in this image showcase the Victorian and Edwardian architectural styles that were prevalent during that time period. From the neatly arranged streets to the charming row houses, every aspect of Bournville village was thoughtfully designed to create a harmonious living environment for its residents.
As you study this historic plan, you can almost imagine what life must have been like in this bustling community over a century ago. The legacy of George Cadbury's vision lives on today in Bournville village, which continues to be a thriving and close-knit community.
Whether you have a personal connection to Bournville or simply appreciate historical photography, this print is sure to spark your curiosity and transport you back in time to an era of innovation and progress.
