EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling High Street of Beighton, a charming village located in Sheffield, Yorkshire. The year is approximately 1900, and the image showcases the iconic George and Dragon pub that once stood proudly on this historic street. The George and Dragon exudes an air of timeless charm with its traditional architecture and inviting facade. It serves as a testament to the rich history and vibrant social life that thrived within these walls for generations. As we gaze at this snapshot from yesteryears, we can almost imagine the lively conversations, clinking glasses, and hearty laughter that filled this beloved establishment. Beighton itself was nestled amidst picturesque Derbyshire countryside, providing locals with respite from their daily routines. This photograph captures not only a pub but also a glimpse into everyday life during this era – horse-drawn carriages passing by on cobblestone streets while elegantly dressed pedestrians go about their day. Preserved by Sheffield Libraries' archives, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate our heritage and reflect upon how communities have evolved over time. It reminds us of simpler times when local pubs like the George and Dragon were cherished meeting places where friendships were forged, stories shared, and memories made. As we admire this historical gem captured through lens decades ago, let it serve as a reminder of our collective past – one that continues to shape our present-day experiences in countless ways.
