EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting photograph of The Village in Wylam, near Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northumberland, England, captured in the year 1920. The image transports us to a simpler era, where quaint cottages with thatched roofs and ivy-covered walls line the narrow, winding streets. The village green, dotted with trees and surrounded by picturesque houses, serves as the heart of the community, where residents would gather for social events, games, and celebrations. The Village, nestled in the picturesque countryside of Northumberland, has a rich history that dates back to the 13th century. It was once a bustling coal-mining community, with the nearby River Tyne providing the means for transporting the coal to markets in Newcastle and beyond. The village's proximity to the river also made it an important stopover for travelers on the ancient Pilgrim's Way. Despite the passage of time, The Village has managed to preserve its charm and character, making it a popular destination for tourists and history enthusiasts. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the daily life of the villagers, their traditions, and their stories. This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty and history of The Village in Wylam, a place where time seems to stand still.
