EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the quaint charm of The Village of Knock, situated on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, during the 1940s. The narrow, winding road leading into the village is flanked by traditional whitewashed houses with thatched roofs, their windows peeking out like the eyes of curious onlookers. The village, nestled amidst rolling hills and lush greenery, appears untouched by the passing of time, offering a glimpse into a simpler way of life. The Village of Knock, located on the western coast of the Isle of Lewis, has a rich history dating back to the 16th century. Its name is believed to have originated from the Gaelic word "Cnoc," meaning hill. The village was once a thriving community, with a school, post office, and shop, providing essential services for its residents. Despite its remote location, the village was not immune to the events of the 1940s. During this period, the Second World War raged on, and the Outer Hebrides served as an important strategic location for both the British and German forces. The islands were subjected to frequent air raids, and the villagers of Knock, like many others in the region, were forced to endure the hardships of wartime. Despite these challenges, the community remained resilient, and the Village of Knock continued to thrive, its people relying on the land and the sea for sustenance. This photograph, taken in the 1940s, offers a poignant reminder of a time when life was simpler, and the bonds of community were stronger. The Village of Knock, with its timeless beauty and rich history, remains an enduring symbol of the Outer Hebrides and the people who call it home.
