EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming village of Downe in Greater London, captured on the 8th of March, 1950. Nestled within the picturesque London Borough of Bromley, this historic village was once part of Kent until 1965. The image showcases a general view of Downe, offering a glimpse into life in the mid-20th century. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a woman gracefully cycling along a peaceful road that winds through the village. The simplicity and tranquility of this scene are enhanced by the presence of St Bruno and St Julien churches standing tall in the background. These architectural gems add an air of serenity to Downe's landscape. As our eyes wander further into the frame, we notice Coopers Café nestled among quaint buildings nearby. This local establishment likely served as a gathering place for villagers to share stories over cups of steaming tea or freshly brewed coffee. Tomlin's expertly composed photograph beautifully captures both the essence and ambiance that defined Downe during this era. It serves as a nostalgic reminder not only for those who once called this village home but also for anyone with an appreciation for history and simpler times gone by.
