EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from May 1936 takes us back in time to the picturesque village of Painswick, nestled in the heart of Gloucestershire. The view looking north up New Street showcases a charming scene that has stood the test of time. In the center-left of this quaint street, we are drawn to the iconic Falcon Hotel, its presence as prominent then as it is today. The Falcon Hotel, with its timeless allure and rich history, continues to be a cherished landmark within Painswick. This historic establishment has witnessed generations come and go while maintaining its reputation for warm hospitality and impeccable service. Its enduring charm makes it a beloved destination for visitors seeking an authentic experience steeped in tradition. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured over eight decades ago, we can't help but marvel at how little has changed on New Street since then. The cobblestone road still exudes an old-world charm while surrounded by buildings that have gracefully aged alongside their surroundings. This print serves as more than just a glimpse into Painswick's past; it evokes nostalgia and invites us to appreciate the beauty found in preserving our heritage. It reminds us that some things remain constant amidst an ever-changing world - like the enduring spirit of places like Painswick and establishments such as The Falcon Hotel which continue to stand tall against time's relentless march forward.
