Park Street

circa 1925

This charming photograph shows Park Street in Aylesbury around 1925, bustling with local life. Residents—children in caps, women in aprons, men in workwear—pose proudly outside their brick terraced homes. The street, lined with identical bay-windowed houses, reflects the architectural style typical of early 20th-century British working-class housing.

Aylesbury, a historic market town in Buckinghamshire, was growing steadily in the 1920s. This image captures a moment of everyday life during the interwar period, when communities were tight-knit and the street was a social hub. Dogs roam freely, children play, and neighbours chat—illustrating a slower, more communal way of life that has largely faded today.
