EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the charm of a bygone era with this photograph of Pier and Promenade, Cromer, Norfolk, circa 1890. The image transports us to the late Victorian era, a time when the seaside resort was a popular destination for holidaymakers seeking relaxation and enjoyment by the sea. The pier, a prominent feature of the scene, stretches out into the North Sea, inviting visitors to stroll along its length and take in the breathtaking views. The promenade, adorned with elegant ironwork and lined with benches, offers a perfect vantage point for those wishing to people-watch or simply enjoy the sea breeze. The beach below is dotted with colorful umbrellas and striped deckchairs, while the gentle waves lap at the shore. The steps leading down to the beach provide a sense of accessibility, inviting visitors to explore the sand and sea. The Pier and Promenade at Cromer, Norfolk, was a hub of activity during the 1890s, with its pavilion hosting concerts, dances, and other entertainment. The area was also famous for its crabs, with visitors able to purchase freshly caught crustaceans from the local fishermen. This photograph, part of The John Barrett Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a window into the history of a beloved seaside resort and the memories of a bygone era.
