EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of Preston Friargate in the early 1900s. The bustling street scene is brought to life by the presence of vintage trams, a common mode of transportation during this era. The architecture and fashion choices reflect the Victorian and Edwardian influences that were prevalent in England at the time.
The black and white image captures a moment frozen in history, allowing us to glimpse into the past and imagine what life was like in Lancashire over a century ago. The attention to detail in the photograph is remarkable, from the cobblestone streets to the intricate designs on buildings lining Friargate.
Preston Friargate exudes an air of nostalgia and charm, transporting viewers back to a simpler time when horse-drawn carriages shared the road with early automobiles. This snapshot of daily life serves as a reminder of how much has changed since then while also highlighting certain timeless aspects that remain constant.
The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has preserved this piece of history for future generations to appreciate and learn from. It is truly a testament to their dedication to capturing moments that would otherwise be lost to time.
