EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Leicester Haymarket OP32418" takes us back in time to the vibrant city of Leicester during the mid-Victorian era. The image captures a bustling scene at the junction of Church Gate, East Gates, and Gallowtree Gate, now known as the site of the iconic clock tower. The photograph showcases a large crowd gathered on cobbled streets, eagerly engaging with their surroundings. Men dressed in police and military uniforms can be spotted amongst them, adding an air of authority to this lively urban setting. It is fascinating to witness how these individuals played a role in maintaining order amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life. The Victorian architecture surrounding the scene provides an enchanting backdrop for this snapshot from history. From ornate buildings adorned with posters and advertisements to charming shopfronts lining Humberstone Gate, every detail tells a story about life in Leicester during this period. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured by Festival of Britain Office's lens, we are transported back to an era where horse-drawn carriages roamed these streets instead of modern vehicles. This print serves as a testament to both our shared heritage and the ever-evolving nature of cities like Leicester throughout time.
