EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Bill Rowntree, we are transported back to the 1970s, specifically the 12th of September in 1973. The image showcases Jeremy Thorpe, a prominent Liberal Member of Parliament for North Devon, within the confines of his constituency office located in Barnstaple. Thorpe's charismatic presence is evident as he stands outside his office, exuding confidence and determination. Dressed impeccably in a suit befitting his political stature, he epitomizes the essence of a seasoned politician. His piercing gaze suggests an unwavering commitment to serving his constituents and advancing liberal ideals. The photograph offers us a glimpse into Thorpe's world during this era – one filled with political fervor and ambition. As we observe him amidst the backdrop of Barnstaple's streetscape, it becomes apparent that this was not merely an ordinary day at work for him; rather, it symbolizes his dedication towards representing the people who entrusted their votes to him. Bill Rowntree skillfully captures both the physical surroundings and Thorpe's commanding presence through his lens. This snapshot serves as a poignant reminder of an influential figure who left an indelible mark on British politics during the twentieth century. As we reflect upon this historical moment frozen in time through Rowntree's lens, we cannot help but appreciate how such photographs from Memory Lane Prints allow us to connect with our past and gain deeper insights into significant events that have shaped our society today
