EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in 1935, we are transported back in time to the quaint town of Stonehouse, Gloucestershire. The image showcases a group of employees proudly posing outside the premises of A R Blick and Son, builders and undertakers. The undertakers stand tall and confident, dressed impeccably in their formal attire - a stark contrast against the backdrop of their trade. With solemn expressions on their faces, they exude an air of professionalism and dignity that is synonymous with their line of work. The building itself stands as a testament to craftsmanship, its architecture reflecting the era it was built in. Its sturdy walls seem to hold countless stories within them - tales of grief and mourning intertwined with moments of solace provided by these compassionate individuals. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder that even during challenging times such as those faced during the Great Depression era, life continued on. It highlights how essential services like undertaking played an integral role in supporting communities through difficult times. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Historic England Archive's collection, we can't help but feel grateful for those who dedicated themselves to providing comfort and solace during some of life's most trying moments.
