EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "View of Basingstoke from the towers of the Town Hall. Circa 1935" takes us back in time to a bustling era in North Hampshire's history. Captured by the talented photographer Humphrey Spender, this image showcases the charm and architectural beauty that defined Basingstoke during the 1930s. From high above, we are treated to an aerial perspective of Basingstoke's vibrant high street. The scene is alive with activity as people go about their daily lives amidst a backdrop of stunning buildings and intricate church spires. The attention to detail is remarkable; every brick seems to tell a story. As we gaze upon this snapshot from yesteryear, it becomes evident that Basingstoke was not just a town but a thriving community full of character and life. It transports us back to an era when horse-drawn carriages shared the streets with early automobiles, when shopfronts displayed their wares enticingly, and when architecture stood tall as a testament to craftsmanship. Humphrey Spender's lens has captured more than just bricks and mortar; he has immortalized moments frozen in time – snippets of everyday life that would otherwise be lost forever. This photograph serves as both a window into our past and a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there will always be glimpses worth preserving for future generations. So let us take this opportunity to step back into history through Humphrey Spender's
