EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the picturesque coastal village of Annalong in County Down, Northern Ireland, circa early 1900s. The scene is set outside quaint buildings with whitewashed walls and thatched roofs, as two horse-drawn vehicles wait patiently for their passengers. The longer vehicle, known locally as 'The Long Car,' is a distinctive feature of this image. It was a popular mode of transportation in rural areas before the advent of motorcars. The passengers, dressed in period attire, seem to be in no hurry as they engage in conversation or simply enjoy the fresh sea air. The shorter vehicle, also pulled by two horses, appears to be loaded with goods, perhaps on its way to market or to deliver supplies to the village. The tranquil setting, with the rolling hills and the blue sea in the background, adds to the serene atmosphere of this bygone era. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and horse-drawn vehicles were a common sight on the winding roads of Annalong.
