EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic charm of Postbridge on Dartmoor National Park in Devon, England, taken in the year 1977. At the heart of the scene lies the ancient Clapper Bridge, a 13th-century marvel that crosses the East Dart River. The bridge's name comes from the large, flat, limestone slabs that form its arches, a design common in the region's medieval structures. In the foreground, the Clapper Bridge's sturdy, time-worn stones invite us to imagine the countless packhorses that have traversed its length over the centuries. The East Dart River, with its crystal-clear waters, flows gently beneath the bridge, adding to the serene atmosphere. The photograph also reveals an 18th-century stone bridge in the background, a testament to the area's rich history and continuous development. The trees lining the riverbanks, with their vibrant autumn colors, frame the scene and add a sense of depth and dimension. The quaint houses and buildings of Postbridge, nestled in the valley, complete the picture of a bygone era. The tranquility of the scene is a stark contrast to the modern world, making it an invaluable piece of Devon's heritage and a must-see for history and nature enthusiasts alike.
