EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Norbury Estate, London, 1907" takes us back in time to the early 20th century. The image showcases the newly completed villas and houses of Northborough on Norbury Estate, located in Deptford, Metropolitan Borough of Deptford in London. The photographer, an English artist from the 20th century whose name remains unknown to us today, beautifully captures the essence of this Edwardian council estate. The facade and exterior of these tenements stand tall against a backdrop that exudes both charm and history. Intriguingly enough, this print is part of the collection held by the London Metropolitan Archives. It offers a glimpse into society's approach to social housing during that era - a testament to England's commitment to providing adequate residential spaces for its citizens. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that architecture played a significant role in shaping these housing estates. The rows of houses lining the streets reflect meticulous planning and attention to detail. This photograph not only documents an important piece of British history but also serves as a reminder of how public services like housing have evolved over time. Its inclusion within Bridgeman Images' portfolio ensures that this remarkable piece will continue to be appreciated for generations to come.
