EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical significance of Stocks, a pair of stone pillars housing wooden stock beams with two pairs of leg-holes in Poulton-le-Fylde, Lancashire. The image, captured by Mr G M Smith ARPS and listed under IoE 184785, transports us back to a time when these stocks played a crucial role in maintaining law and order. The sturdy stone pillars stand tall against the backdrop of Lancashire's picturesque landscape. Weathered by time, they bear witness to countless tales of justice served and wrongdoers held accountable for their actions. The wooden stock beams exhibit signs of wear and tear, reminding us that this was once an instrument used to publicly shame individuals who had committed crimes. As we delve into the history behind these stocks, we are reminded that they were not merely objects but symbols representing societal values. They serve as a reminder that every community has its own unique way of dealing with crime throughout different eras. Mr G M Smith ARPS skillfully captures the essence of this historic relic through his lens. His attention to detail allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in creating such structures while also acknowledging their somber purpose. This print serves as both a visual testament to our shared past and an invitation for reflection on how societies have evolved over time in addressing crime and punishment. It is a poignant reminder that history continues to shape our present-day understanding of justice and social responsibility.
