EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting photograph from the early 1900s, titled 'Playing on the Sands at Morecambe.' This vintage image captures the carefree spirit of childhood as a group of young boys and girls frolic on the shores of Morecambe, a popular seaside resort located in Lancashire, England. Dressed in Edwardian and Victorian attire, the children are seen building sandcastles, collecting seashells, and playing games on the soft, golden sands. The gentle waves of the Irish Sea lap at their feet, and the clear blue sky overhead is dotted with puffs of white clouds. Morecambe was a beloved destination for families during this era, offering a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life. The town's sandy beaches, clean waters, and picturesque promenade provided the perfect setting for relaxation and recreation. This charming photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, transporting us back to a simpler time when the joys of childhood could be found in the simplest of pleasures – a day at the beach with loved ones. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, from which this image is sourced, is a treasure trove of historical photographs that capture the essence of life in Britain during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph, in particular, is a delightful reminder of the enduring appeal of the seaside and the memories that are made there.
