EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic Houston Market Cross in Renfrewshire, Scotland, as it stood proudly in the 1950s. The Market Cross, a symbol of the town's rich history, is located in the heart of Houston, a small burgh in Renfrewshire. The cross, believed to date back to the 15th or 16th century, is a testament to the town's Scottish heritage and its long-standing tradition of markets and fairs. The photograph shows the cross standing tall against a backdrop of old, stone buildings, their walls weathered by time and the elements. The cross, with its intricately carved designs and ornate details, stands out in stark relief against the grey sky, adding an air of mystery and intrigue. The surrounding buildings, some with shops and others with residential dwellings, give a sense of the bustling activity that once took place around the cross. The Market Cross was not only a religious symbol but also a gathering place for the community. Market days were a time for people to come together to buy and sell goods, exchange news, and socialize. The photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of a bygone era, when life was simpler, and community spirit was strong. The photograph is a reminder of the importance of preserving our heritage and the history of our towns and villages. The Houston Market Cross, though no longer standing in its original location, continues to be a source of pride for the people of Houston and a reminder of their rich history.
