EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the idyllic English countryside of the 1950s, as depicted in this evocative photograph of the Medieval Market Cross in the heart of Stow-on-the-Wold's Market Square. Dating back to the 14th century, the Market Cross stands proudly as a testament to the rich history and tradition of this charming Cotswold town in Gloucestershire. The photograph, taken in 1953, captures a moment in time when the Market Cross was still a central hub of activity for the local community. Market days were a social occasion, bringing together farmers, traders, and locals to buy and sell produce, exchange news, and enjoy each other's company. The Market Cross provided a focal point for these gatherings, its intricately carved stonework a reminder of the town's medieval past. The scene is one of simplicity and charm, with the Market Cross framed by the surrounding trees and the rolling hills of the Cotswolds in the distance. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the traditional dress and mannerisms of the people of Stow-on-the-Wold during the 1950s. This image is a treasure trove of social history, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of community and tradition were cherished. Today, the Medieval Market Cross remains a beloved landmark, drawing visitors from around the world who are drawn to the town's rich heritage and the enduring charm of the English countryside.
