EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the charming village of Burton Bradstock, West Dorset, with this stunning photograph from Historic England's archives. Taken by Katherine MacFee in the 1920s, this print captures a serene moment along a footpath that winds its way towards the shore. The path is flanked by lush blackthorn trees in full bloom, their white flowers adding a touch of elegance to the scene.
At the end of the path, a traditional thatched cottage comes into view, its catslide roof rising gently above the surrounding landscape. The cottage exudes warmth and character, evoking memories of simpler times and quieter days. Despite being taken nearly a century ago, this photograph still transports us to an era when life moved at a slower pace.
The exact location of this picturesque spot remains unknown, but it's clear that it holds special charm for those who have walked these paths before. Whether you're drawn to history, nature or simply appreciate the beauty of rural England, this photograph is sure to captivate your senses and leave you longing for more.
