EDITORS COMMENTS
This Victorian glass lantern slide presents a tranquil scene of Old Cottages from the Pier in Lynmouth, Devon, Western England. Dating back to the late 1890s, this evocative image transports us back in time to the quaint charm of a bygone era. The picturesque row of cottages, nestled along the water's edge, is connected by a pier that stretches out into the calm, blue-green waters. The cottages, with their thatched roofs and whitewashed walls, exude a sense of history and tradition, reflecting the unique character of Devon's coastal communities. Lynmouth, situated on the rugged north Devon coast, has long been a popular destination for tourists seeking the beauty and tranquility of the English countryside. The town's natural harbor, surrounded by steep cliffs and rolling hills, has provided shelter for seafarers and fishermen for centuries. The arrival of the railway in the late 19th century further boosted its popularity, making it easily accessible to visitors from all corners of the country. This beautiful lantern slide, part of the Boswell Collection, offers a rare glimpse into the past, inviting us to imagine the daily lives of the people who once called these cottages home. The intricate details of the scene, from the boats moored at the pier to the laundry hanging out to dry, are beautifully preserved, making this a must-have for anyone with an interest in Devon's rich history and cultural heritage.
