Standing on Fore Street, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carts were the primary mode of transportation. The image showcases a charming slice of village life as it once was. In the foreground, a lady stands confidently in the middle of the road, cradling a baby in her arms. Two others strike poses for the camera nearby, their expressions hinting at a sense of pride and curiosity about this moment frozen in time.
