1865 Coach Gates Kennington Passes Removed Turnpike Year
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history as a coach passes through the Kennington Turnpike in south London back in 1865. The image provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the bustling activity of this historical landmark before it was removed later that year. The turnpike gates stand tall and imposing, serving as a reminder of England's rich history and transportation routes.
The sight of the coach passing through the turnpike evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when horse-drawn carriages were a common mode of transportation. The scene is filled with charm and character, offering viewers a window into life in 19th century England.
As we reflect on this image, we are reminded of how much has changed over the years yet also how some things remain constant. The removal of the Kennington Turnpike marked an end to an era but also paved the way for progress and modernization.
This print from Mary Evans Prints Online serves as both a visual delight and a historical treasure, allowing us to connect with our past and appreciate the journey that has brought us to where we are today.
