EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and explore the charming English village of Abbots Kerswell, nestled in the picturesque countryside of Devon, England during the 1920s. This photograph transports us to a bygone era, where quaint thatched cottages line the winding streets, and the lush green landscape rolls out before us. The village, located in the heart of Newton Abbot, was once a thriving community where residents lived in harmony with the surrounding countryside. The image showcases the village's rich history, with its ancient church standing proudly at the center, its spire reaching towards the heavens. The village green, dotted with trees and children playing, adds to the idyllic scene. The 1920s were a time of great change, with the roaring twenties bringing new fashions, technology, and cultural shifts. Yet, in Abbots Kerswell, life continued much as it had for generations. The villagers tended to their farms, went about their daily routines, and came together for community events. This photograph is a precious reminder of a time long past, a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of rural living were cherished. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who once called Abbots Kerswell home, and to appreciate the beauty and history of this enchanting English village.
