EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: Wh Mogford's Premises on High Street, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol County, England (1908) 2.. This photograph, taken in the year 1908, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of High Street in Westbury-on-Trym, a charming suburb of Bristol, England. The image, which is now available as a print from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the premises of WH Mogford, a local painter and plumber, located near Southmead in the Bristol County. 3. The photograph reveals a bustling High Street scene, with horse-drawn carts and pedestrians navigating the cobblestone road. The focus, however, is on the well-established business of WH Mogford, which is identified by the distinctive signage hanging above the entrance. The red, white, and blue colors of the sign, along with the bold lettering, stand out against the muted tones of the surrounding buildings. 4. The premises themselves are a testament to the craftsmanship and industry of the time. The exterior is adorned with intricate brickwork and ornate details, while the interior would have been filled with the tools and supplies necessary for a painter and plumber. The presence of WH Mogford's business on High Street speaks to the importance of local tradespeople in the community during this era. 5. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era when life moved at a slower pace, and the importance of local businesses was deeply felt. The image serves as a reminder of the rich history that can be found in the smallest of details, and the enduring role that local tradespeople play in the fabric of our communities. 6. Today, the premises of WH Mogford may have been replaced by modern businesses, but the memory of this historic moment remains alive through this photograph. It invites us to explore the stories of our past and to appreciate the continuity and change that defines our communities.
