The image transports us to an era long past, with its intriguing street scene filled with the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The photograph, taken between the 1860s and the 1890s, showcases the grand architecture of the village's buildings, their intricate details standing proud against the backdrop of the rugged cliffs. The cobblestone road winds its way through the scene, leading us past a quaint pub, where locals and travelers alike would have gathered for a pint and a hearty meal.

Fishermen can be seen mending their nets, while others load and unload goods from carts, indicating the importance of commerce in the village's economy.

This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, inviting us to explore the stories of the people who once called this picturesque village home.
