This print by James O. Davies showcases the timeless beauty of Timber Setts DP221888, located on King Street in Rochdale, Lancashire. The intricate details of these beechwood setts are highlighted in this image, capturing their unique charm and character. As we gaze upon the photograph, we are transported back in time to a bygone era when cobbled roads were a common sight. The north part of King Street between Fleece Street and South Parade is brought to life through this snapshot. The wooden cobbles create an enchanting path that invites us to explore its history and imagine the countless footsteps that have traversed it over the years. This track of timber setts serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and the importance of preserving such architectural treasures. James O. Davies' expertly captured image allows us to appreciate not only the aesthetic appeal but also the craftsmanship involved in creating these timber setts. Each individual sett tells a story, adding depth and character to this historic street.

These timber setts stand as a testament to human ingenuity and serve as a visual reminder that even amidst modernization, traces of our past can still be found if we take the time to notice them.
