EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the quintessential charm of Haslemere, Surrey in England during the early 1900s. The image focuses on a traditional country fishmonger's shop, located in this picturesque town. Dated 1903, the photograph transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past. The shop, adorned with wooden panels and a thatched roof, exudes a rustic appeal. The fishmonger, dressed in a white apron and a bowler hat, is seen carefully selecting fresh fish from a large wooden tub filled with icy water. The fish, displayed on a bed of ice, glisten in the natural light that filters in through the open door. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of a horse-drawn cart parked outside the shop. The horse, harnessed and ready, suggests that the fishmonger may be making deliveries to local customers. The cobblestone street, lined with trees and quaint houses, adds to the idyllic setting. The photograph is a testament to the rich history of Haslemere and the importance of the local fishmonger in providing fresh produce to the community. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of fresh fish and horse-drawn carts were a part of daily life.
