EDITORS COMMENTS
Transported back to the Victorian era, this print captures a nostalgic scene on Oddicombe beach in 1889. Bathing machines line the sandy shore, offering a glimpse into a bygone era of seaside holidays in the United Kingdom. The image exudes an air of elegance and charm as these unique contraptions were used by bathers to maintain their modesty while enjoying the refreshing waters. The quaint bathing machines, resembling small huts on wheels, were a popular mode of transport for beachgoers during the late 19th century. They would be drawn into the sea by horses or even steam-powered engines, allowing individuals to discreetly change into their swimwear before venturing out into the waves. This fascinating snapshot showcases not only an iconic form of coastal transportation but also highlights how society's attitudes towards leisure and fashion have evolved over time. Located in Devon's picturesque South West region, Oddicombe beach served as an idyllic backdrop for holidaymakers seeking respite from bustling city life. The presence of boats dotting the coastline adds another layer of intrigue to this historical photograph, reminding us that shipping played a vital role in connecting coastal communities during this period. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Mirrorpix's Memory Lane Prints collection, we are transported back through time – evoking feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about our ancestors' experiences at one of England's most beloved seaside destinations.
