EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Wellington Inn and The Shambles in Manchester, circa 1906. The vintage photograph transports us to an era of simpler times, where the charm of the old town shines through. The Wellington Inn, with its distinctive sign bearing the image of the Duke of Wellington, stands proudly at the corner of the narrow, cobblestone street. The inn, a popular watering hole for locals and travelers alike, exudes an inviting warmth with its cozy awning and welcoming glow from the inn's windows. Across the street, The Shambles comes alive with a bustling scene of shops and stalls. The quaint, olde-worlde shoppes, with their wooden signs and intricate details, offer a variety of goods, from fresh produce to fishing tackle. A man can be seen climbing a ladder outside one of the shops, perhaps making repairs or hanging out a new sign. The street is illuminated by the soft glow of gas lamps and lanterns, casting a warm, inviting light over the scene. Fishing nets and tackle are displayed outside some of the shops, hinting at the area's rich history and connection to the nearby River Irwell. The atmosphere is lively and friendly, with people milling about, chatting and laughing. The aroma of freshly baked bread and roasting meat wafts through the air, adding to the sense of community and togetherness. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of Manchester's rich history and the charm of its old town, with its unique shops, inviting inns, and warm, welcoming atmosphere.
