EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Katherine MacFee takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Tenterden, Ashford, Kent in the 1920s. The image captures a picturesque view of St Mildred's Church tower from the south-east on High Street. Standing proudly against the sky, the church serves as a timeless symbol of faith and community. In the foreground, we see number 28 High Street and the Woolpack Hotel, both integral parts of this vibrant town scene. These buildings exude character with their charming architecture and inviting facades. They stand as witnesses to countless stories that have unfolded within their walls over the years. Adding to this nostalgic ambiance are two modes of transportation parked on the street - a motor car and bicycle. These vehicles represent an era when road transport was still evolving, giving us a glimpse into how people moved about during those times. Katherine MacFee has expertly captured not only architectural beauty but also a sense of life unfolding in this snapshot from history. Through her lens, we can almost hear echoes of footsteps on cobbled streets and imagine conversations taking place inside these historic establishments. This print is more than just an image; it is a portal into another era – one filled with charm, tradition, and community spirit that continues to resonate through generations.
