EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the late 1800s and join us on a journey to the picturesque English seaside town of Hastings, located on the south coast. This photograph, taken around the 1880s, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the community during this era. Boys of all ages can be seen frolicking on the rocky shoreline, exploring the tide pools and reveling in the simple joys of a day at the beach. Their laughter and playful banter fill the air, creating a sense of carefree innocence. In the distance, traditional fishing boats dot the horizon, their sails raised high to catch the wind. The fishermen, hardworking and determined, braved the rough waters to provide for their families and community. Their boats, a vital part of Hastings' rich maritime history, were essential to the town's economy and identity. The photograph, captured on an albumen or collodion print, is a testament to the cultural and historical significance of this early 19th-century seaside town. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of a bygone era, transporting us to a time when life moved at a slower pace and the simple pleasures of nature were cherished. As we take in the beauty of this image, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our history and appreciating the unique stories that each era has to tell. So come, take a moment to immerse yourself in the past and let the charm of 1880s Hastings on the south coast captivate your senses.
