EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Peaceful Moment by Llangorse Lake: A Glance into the Past" This photograph, hailing from the 1920s, transports us back in time to the serene shores of Llangorse Lake in Llangors, Powys, Wales. Nestled within the breathtaking Brecon Beacons National Park, near the picturesque village of Bronllys, this image showcases a tranquil scene of wooden boats gently bobbing on the water's edge. The jetty, weathered by time, extends into the lake, inviting boaters to embark on a journey across the mirror-like surface. The boats, reminiscent of a bygone era, add a sense of nostalgia and charm to the scene. The surrounding landscape, with its lush greenery and clear blue skies, further emphasizes the idyllic beauty of this hidden gem in the Welsh countryside. Llangorse Lake, the largest natural lake in Wales, has been a popular destination for visitors since ancient times. Its history dates back to the Roman occupation, with evidence of a Roman settlement discovered nearby. Over the centuries, the lake has been used for various purposes, including fishing, water sports, and transportation. This photograph, taken in the 1920s, offers a glimpse into the lake's rich history and the simple pleasures of a bygone era. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who once stood on this very jetty, casting a line into the water or helping their loved ones aboard their boats. The scene remains unchanged, frozen in time, allowing us to connect with the past and appreciate the timeless beauty of nature. This image, with its historical significance and evocative charm, is a must-have for anyone with an interest in Welsh history, vintage photography, or the simple pleasures of rural life.
