Anglesey Cottages

1910

A quiet day in The Ring at Stalbridge is immortalised in this remarkable 1910 photograph of the Anglesey Cottages. Lined up in perfect Georgian symmetry, these modest workers’ homes evoke the enduring charm of rural Edwardian England.

Children pose with curious grace in the unpaved road, while women gather at their doorsteps, exchanging morning words or simply pausing for the camera — a rare event at the time. In the distance, a cart awaits use, and the gentle layout of the village hints at a life lived at a slower, steadier rhythm.

This photograph is a precious window into the everyday lives of a small Dorset community at the dawn of the 20th century. The sense of place, pride and peaceful order radiates from every corner of this street scene.
