EDITORS COMMENTS
Sidestrand Tower, Cromer: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken circa 1900, showcases Sidestrand Tower in the quaint English village of Sidestrand, located on the picturesque coast of Norfolk. The village, which lies 23.7 miles (38.1 km) north of Norwich, 3.3 miles (5.3 km) south east of Cromer, and 138 miles (222 km) north-east of London, is steeped in history and charm. The Old Tower, a prominent feature of Sidestrand, stands proudly against the backdrop of the rolling hills and the vast expanse of the North Sea. The tower, which is believed to date back to the 16th century, served as a lookout point and a refuge for the villagers during times of invasion. Its weathered walls and intricate details tell the story of a rich history that spans over several centuries. This photograph, part of the Boswell Collection, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. The image captures the essence of the East Coast, with its rugged cliffs, expansive skies, and the tranquil beauty of the sea. The lantern-lit tower, standing tall against the darkening sky, adds a mystical quality to the scene, making it a truly mesmerizing sight to behold. As we admire this photograph, we are reminded of the enduring charm of the English countryside and the importance of preserving the history and heritage of our communities. Sidestrand Tower, Cromer, continues to be a symbol of the past, standing strong against the test of time and serving as a reminder of the rich history that lies within the heart of Norfolk.
