EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Old Manchester and Salford. The detailed engraving, created by Herbert Railton in 1887, offers a glimpse into the rich history and architectural marvels of these iconic English cities. As we peer into this snapshot from the past, our eyes are immediately drawn to the magnificent structures that line Market Sted Lane. From the grandeur of Cheethams College to the intricate design of Sanctvary, each building tells its own story and adds depth to this historic scene. The image also captures life along the Irwell River with its old bridge standing proudly amidst flowing waters. We can almost imagine hearing echoes of footsteps on cobblestone streets as people go about their daily routines. Notably, there is a pillory visible in one corner, serving as a reminder of justice systems long gone. The presence of stocks further emphasizes how different life was during this era. Salford Cross stands tall at another intersection, symbolizing both unity and division between these two neighboring cities. It serves as a testament to their shared heritage while highlighting their unique identities. This print transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate not only the impressive architecture but also gain insight into everyday life in Old Manchester and Salford over a century ago.
