Town Criers - Oyez, Oyez, Newport's First Lady Town Crier for 200 Years
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1990s and introduced to a remarkable woman who broke barriers and embraced tradition. Yvonne Williams proudly stands as Newport's first female town crier since the 1780s, embodying strength and confidence in her role. Dressed in an elaborate costume that harkens back to centuries-old British traditions, Yvonne commands attention with her presence. Holding a bell high above her head, she prepares to announce important news or upcoming events with her powerful voice echoing through the streets of Newport. Yvonne is a self-confessed extrovert who thrives on connecting with people. Her passion for public speaking shines through as she carries on the legacy of town crying that has endured for two centuries. This photograph captures not only Yvonne's individual triumph but also represents the progress made by women in traditionally male-dominated roles. The image serves as a reminder of how deeply rooted customs can evolve over time while still preserving their essence. It showcases an iconic British institution that continues to captivate audiences today. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the importance of embracing our history while celebrating those who challenge societal norms and pave new paths forward.
