Step back in time with this vintage photograph of Old Court House Street in Kolkata, India, during the 19th century. The image transports us to a bygone era, showcasing the rich cultural heritage and historical significance of this iconic street in Calcutta. Old Court House Street, named after the Old High Court building located at its northern end, has been a prominent feature of Kolkata's urban landscape since the British colonial period. The photograph, taken between the 1870s and 1900s, reveals a bustling street filled with traditional Indian residences, each adorned with intricate architectural details and vibrant colors. The Old High Court building, a grand edifice of colonial architecture, stands proudly at the northern end of the street. Its imposing presence and impressive neoclassical design reflect the British influence on Indian architecture during the colonial era. The building housed the Supreme Court of Calcutta until 2001, making it a symbol of the city's legal and judicial history. The street is lined with traditional Indian houses, each with its unique character and charm. The houses, with their ornate balconies, intricate carvings, and colorful facades, offer a glimpse into the traditional way of life in Kolkata during the 19th century. The narrow lanes and alleys branching off Old Court House Street add to the labyrinthine charm of the area, making it a favorite among travelers and history buffs.

The streets were bustling with activity, with people going about their daily lives, horses and carts plying the streets, and vendors selling their wares.
