Clitheroe Grocer Lancashire Premises 1923
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of The Village in Grindleton, near Clitheroe, Lancashire, England, as it appeared in 1923. The photograph showcases the quaint and picturesque charm of this historic English village, with its quaint houses, winding lanes, and lush green landscapes. At the heart of the scene, we find the premises of H. Smalley, the local grocer. H. Smalley's shop, with its wooden signboard and large, arched windows, stands proudly amongst the other buildings, a testament to the community's rich history. The image transports us back to a simpler time, where life moved at a slower pace, and the local grocer was a familiar and integral part of village life. The villagers of Grindleton would have known H. Smalley and his family well, as they gathered their daily essentials from his shop. The grocer would have stocked a wide range of goods, from fresh produce and dairy products to staples such as flour, sugar, and tea. The shop would have been the hub of the community, a place where people would meet, exchange news, and catch up on the latest goings-on. This photograph is a precious snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the daily life of a rural English village over 100 years ago. The Village of Grindleton, with its charming character and fascinating history, continues to draw visitors from near and far, who come to explore its winding streets, historic buildings, and the legacy of its proud past.
