EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Blast from the Past: The Market Square, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk in the 1910s The Market Square in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England, transports us back in time with this photograph from the 1910s. This image, taken during a bygone era, offers a glimpse into the rich history and vibrant community life of this coastal town. The Market Square, situated at the heart of Great Yarmouth, has been a bustling hub for centuries. This photograph, however, reveals a more tranquil scene, with the open market stalls displaying an array of fresh produce, local crafts, and household items. The marketgoers, dressed in their finest attire, engage in lively conversations, haggling over prices, and sharing stories. The architectural backdrop of the Market Square is equally intriguing. The Town Hall, a grand, red-brick building, stands proudly at the center, its clock tower reaching towards the clear blue sky. Surrounding the square are various shops, many of which have been in operation for generations. The horse-drawn carriages and the horse and carts parked nearby add to the charm of this scene, reminding us of the era before automobiles became commonplace. The horse, a vital part of daily life, is seen tethered to a post, patiently waiting for its owner. This photograph offers a unique perspective into the history of Great Yarmouth and its Market Square. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of the market, and to appreciate the sense of community that thrived in this town over a century ago.
