EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Bigg Market OP12284" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Newcastle upon Tyne between 1925 and 1930. Captured by the talented photographer Harry Ord Thompson, this elevated view offers a remarkable glimpse into the vibrant atmosphere of Bigg Market. As we peer down from above, our eyes are immediately drawn to the lively scene below. The street is teeming with activity - pedestrians strolling along the pavements, trams gliding through the thoroughfare, and cars navigating their way amidst it all. It's a snapshot of a bygone era when road transport was still evolving and coexisting harmoniously with foot traffic. The crowd that fills every corner of this historic market square adds an undeniable energy to the image. People from all walks of life can be seen going about their daily routines - some engaged in conversation or window shopping at store fronts while others hurry along on their own missions. Thompson's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate not only the movement but also architectural elements that define this iconic location. The facades of various buildings line both sides of Bigg Market, each one telling its own story through intricate designs and signage. In preserving this moment frozen in time, Historic England invites us to reflect on how much has changed over decades while reminding us that certain aspects endure – like human connection within urban spaces.
