EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, Hedon EPW012691 from the Historic England Archive, offers a unique perspective of Hedon, a charming town in East Yorkshire, England, as it appeared in May 1925. The image, taken by Aerofilms, showcases the town centre with its intricate layout of winding streets and alleys, interspersed with lush green spaces and the prominent St. Augustine's Church. St. Augustine's Church, a significant landmark in Hedon, is located towards the northern part of the town centre. Its distinctive bell tower, with its tall, slender spire, stands proudly against the sky, drawing the eye and offering a sense of historical continuity. The church, with its Gothic Revival architecture, is a testament to the town's rich history and religious heritage. The town centre, surrounded by a grid-like network of streets, reveals a bustling hub of activity. The intricate layout, which includes a marketplace, town hall, and various shops, reflects the town's long-standing tradition of community and commerce. The presence of numerous gardens and open spaces, including the Town Park and the Hedon Haven, adds to the town's picturesque charm and contributes to its appeal as a desirable place to live and visit. This aerial photograph, a precious piece of history from the Historic England Archive, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the layout, architecture, and character of Hedon as it was over 90 years ago.
