EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to December 1952 in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the magnificent cathedral that proudly stands atop a hill, overlooking the bustling High Street below. Its grandeur and architectural beauty are truly awe-inspiring. Adjacent to the cathedral is Stonebow, a 16th-century gateway adorned with intricate details. Attached to it is the Guildhall, featuring a prominent clock above its entrance. As we observe closely, we notice heavy traffic passing through this archway; however, it's evident that careful regulation is necessary due to its narrow passage. The snapshot perfectly captures life in this vibrant city during the mid-20th century. Bicycles can be seen scattered along the street as residents go about their daily routines. Classic cars from that era add charm and nostalgia to the scene. Intriguingly, one building catches our attention - Saracens Head Hotel - standing tall amidst all others on High Street. It serves as a reminder of how towns evolve over time while still preserving their historical landmarks. This remarkable photograph by C Pratt and Sons allows us to immerse ourselves in an era long gone but not forgotten. It encapsulates both tranquility and liveliness within one frame – a testament to Lincoln's rich history and enduring spirit.
