EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of Burgh Chambers, War Memorial, and The Fountain in Cornhill Square, Galashiels. Dating back to the early 20th century, this image transports us to a bygone era where architectural grandeur and historical significance were celebrated. The imposing Burgh Chambers stand tall with its intricate stonework and ornate detailing. This iconic building served as the administrative hub for Galashiels during that period, embodying the town's rich heritage and civic pride. Adjacent to it stands the solemn War Memorial, a poignant tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service of their country. Its somber elegance is a reminder of the profound impact of war on communities like Galashiels. In contrast to these structures steeped in history is The Fountain, an enchanting centerpiece that adds charm and vitality to Cornhill Square. With its cascading water and decorative embellishments, it serves as a gathering point for locals and visitors alike. This evocative print captures not only architectural marvels but also offers glimpses into daily life during that time period. It invites us to imagine bustling streets filled with horse-drawn carriages or people going about their day amidst this picturesque setting. Preserved by the Royal Commission on The Ancient And Historical Monuments Of Scotland, this photograph allows us to appreciate how Galashiels has evolved while honoring its past. It serves as a testament to our collective responsibility in cherishing our cultural heritage for generations yet unborn.
