STREET VIEW
A quiet corner of Garforth, West Yorkshire, captured in the early Edwardian era. The Old George Inn stands prominently, its sign swaying gently in the breeze as a horse and cart await the next delivery. Locals linger at the doorway, exchanging news or perhaps awaiting a pint of mild ale within.
This photograph dates from the same year that Leeds City F.C. was founded—an emblem of the region’s growing civic pride and sporting spirit. Meanwhile, Britain was basking in the twilight of the Edwardian golden age, unaware of the profound changes just ahead.
🏡 A glimpse of village life before the world shifted.
