Local fishmonger selling his wares

1910

In this charming street scene from 1910, a fishmonger tends to his cart while a crowd of eager cats gathers at his feet — a delightful snapshot of Edwardian life in Glossop, Derbyshire. Behind him, other horse-drawn carts wait along the cobbled lane, and a few curious onlookers observe the scene.

It’s an image that beautifully captures the rhythm of daily life: the friendly bustle of a local vendor, the reliance on horse power, and even the ever-hopeful neighbourhood cats.
