EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "High Street, Leatherhead, 1912" and captured by the talented artist Jamess Ogilvy in 1914, takes us on a journey back in time to the charming town of Leatherhead in Surrey. With its origins dating all the way back to the Domesday Book of 1086 as Leret, this historic location has witnessed centuries of transformation and growth. The image showcases a bustling High Street scene from nearly a century ago. As we gaze upon it, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carriages gracefully traverse cobbled streets while elegantly dressed pedestrians go about their daily routines. The architecture exudes an old-world charm with its timber-framed buildings adorned with intricate details. Ogilvy's keen eye for detail allows us to immerse ourselves fully into this snapshot of history. Every element within the frame tells a story - from the shop signs that hint at long-forgotten trades to the expressions on people's faces that reflect their hopes and dreams. This print is not just a visual delight but also serves as a valuable historical document. It offers us glimpses into how life once was in Leatherhead during those early years of the twentieth century. Through Ogilvy's lens, we can almost hear echoes of conversations carried by gentle breezes and imagine ourselves strolling down High Street alongside our ancestors.
