EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the 11th of February, 1930, capturing a serene moment on the River Wansbeck at North Seaton, Ashington in Northumberland. The focal point of the image is ferryman Robert Wheatley, who had been diligently working this crossing for an impressive 55 years. The photograph showcases a picturesque countryside scene with quaint homes dotting the landscape. In the foreground, we see Mr. Wheatley expertly pulling on a rope attached to his boat as he ferries passengers across the river. His weathered face tells tales of countless journeys made and stories heard during his long tenure as a ferryman. The simplicity and tranquility captured in this image transport us to a bygone era when life moved at a slower pace. It reminds us of simpler times when people relied on such humble means of transportation to connect communities separated by rivers. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it's impossible not to appreciate Mr. Wheatley's dedication and commitment to his craft. This photograph serves as both an homage to him and a testament to the enduring beauty found within our natural landscapes. Memory Lane Prints offers us glimpses into history through their vast collection of photographs like these – moments that might have otherwise been forgotten but are now preserved for generations to come.
