EDITORS COMMENTS
The Square, Comber: A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures the bustling atmosphere of The Square in Comber, Northern Ireland, during the early 1900s. The image showcases a picturesque scene of horse-drawn vehicles filling the foreground, their harnesses and reins creating intricate patterns on the cobblestone streets. The horses, with their proud heads held high, seem to carry the weight of history as they transport their passengers through the town. In the background, the imposing figure of the Gillespie monument stands tall, a testament to the community's rich history and heritage. The monument, dedicated to the memory of the Reverend James Gillespie, a prominent figure in Comber's history, adds an air of grandeur and importance to the scene. The Square's vibrant marketplace, with its various stalls and vendors, is hinted at in the shadows, adding to the sense of activity and commerce. The tranquil Comber Church, with its steeple reaching towards the heavens, completes the idyllic tableau, providing a sense of peace and serenity amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life. County Down's charming town of Comber, with its rich history and picturesque setting, is beautifully represented in this photograph. The image serves as a captivating reminder of a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the stories and memories of those who once walked these very streets.
