EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of Peterborough Westgate captures the essence of a bygone era, most likely taken in the 1920s. The bustling street scene is filled with vintage cars and trams, giving us a glimpse into daily life in this historic English town.
The architecture of Westgate reflects the Victorian and Edwardian influences of the time, with ornate buildings lining the street. Lanterns cast a warm glow over the cobblestone pavement, adding to the nostalgic charm of this snapshot from yesteryear.
The tram tracks running down the center of the road are a reminder of an era when public transportation was still in its infancy. Passengers would have relied on these trams to get around town, making their way through busy streets like Westgate.
The old-fashioned cars parked along the curb add to the sense of nostalgia, with their sleek lines and classic designs evoking memories of a simpler time. Each vehicle tells its own story, hinting at adventures had and journeys yet to come.
As we gaze upon this vintage photograph, we are transported back in time to early 20th century England. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has preserved this piece of history for future generations to enjoy, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and charm of Peterborough's Westgate district as it once was.
