EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Ilfracombe's iconic Pier and Hillsborough Hill, captured in the 1930s. The Pier, a popular seaside attraction, stretches out into the Bristol Channel, inviting visitors to enjoy the fresh sea air and breathtaking views of the Devon coastline. In the foreground, a line of parked cars lines the road leading up to the hill, hinting at the bustling activity of the town. The steep incline of Hillsborough Hill, with its lush greenery and picturesque cottages, stands proudly in the background, offering a scenic escape from the hustle and bustle of the Pier. A steam ferry, puffing out plumes of smoke, can be seen making its way towards the harbor, adding to the vintage charm of the scene. The ferry, a common mode of transport during the era, would have carried passengers and goods to neighboring towns and villages. The photograph, with its crisp contrast and intricate details, transports us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace. Ilfracombe's Pier and Hillsborough Hill, with their timeless beauty, continue to be a beloved destination for visitors seeking a taste of Devon's rich history and natural wonders.
