EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1900s, showcases The Parade in Parkgate, a charming seaside village located near Neston in Cheshire, England. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the history and character of this beautiful coastal town. At the heart of the scene, we see the premises of J. Bushell, the local fisherman. The building, with its simple yet sturdy design, stands proudly amongst the other structures lining the parade. The whitewashed walls, adorned with faded signage, bear testament to the area's rich maritime heritage. Fishermen like J. Bushell were an integral part of Parkgate's community, providing fresh fish for the local population and contributing to the town's thriving economy. The boats, visible in the background, were a common sight along the shoreline, and the sound of their nets being mended and the laughter of the fishermen would fill the air. The Parade itself was a bustling hub of activity, with shops, cafes, and other businesses catering to the needs of both locals and visitors. The cobblestone streets, lined with colorful buildings and vibrant flowers, created a picturesque setting that continues to draw visitors to this day. This photograph is a precious reminder of a bygone era, a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of a seaside village were cherished. It invites us to reflect on the history and traditions that have shaped Parkgate and its people, and to appreciate the beauty and charm that continues to endure.
