EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, showcases a bustling scene on Highgate Hill in North London, specifically at the Whittington Stone. The image transports us back in time, as we observe the Edwardian era coming to life on the streets of London. At the heart of the scene, the ancient Whittington Stone stands proudly, a testament to the rich history of the area. The stone, believed to be a marker for travellers, is named after Dick Whittington, the legendary 14th-century Lord Mayor of London who, according to folklore, heard the Bow Bells of London calling him home after hearing a cat purr. Surrounding the stone, the street comes alive with activity. Shops and businesses line the pavement, their signs advertising a variety of goods and services. A milk shop, identified by the Nestlé sign, catches the eye, while a butcher's shop and a bakery are also visible. The corner shop, with its inviting awning, seems to be doing a brisk business. Transport plays a significant role in this scene, with buses making their way up the hill. The double-decker bus, a common sight in London even today, is a stark contrast to the horse-drawn carriages that were the norm during this era. The pavement is filled with people, some hurrying along, while others take their time to browse the shops or engage in conversation. The image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of Londoners during the Edwardian era. The Whittington Stone, a beloved landmark, stands as a reminder of the area's rich history and the bustling, vibrant community that thrived around it.
