EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scenic beauty and tranquility of Hilly Fields in Lewisham, London, as it appeared over a century ago, in the year 1905. The lush, green expanse of the park is dotted with trees in full bloom, their branches reaching out to form a canopy over the rolling hills. In the foreground, a group of people can be seen enjoying a leisurely afternoon picnic, their laughter and conversation adding to the sense of peace and relaxation. The scene is further enhanced by the picturesque Victorian houses that line the edges of the park, their red-tiled roofs and well-manicured gardens adding to the charm of the setting. In the distance, the city of London can be glimpsed, its towering buildings and smokestacks a stark contrast to the pastoral serenity of Hilly Fields. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era when life moved at a slower pace and the simple pleasures of nature were cherished. It serves as a reminder of the enduring beauty of London's parks and the importance of preserving green spaces for future generations to enjoy. Hilly Fields, located in the Lewisham borough of south London, has been a popular destination for locals and visitors alike since the late 19th century. The park's name is derived from its hilly terrain, which offers stunning views of the surrounding area and provides an ideal spot for outdoor activities such as picnicking, jogging, and birdwatching. Today, Hilly Fields remains a beloved and cherished part of London's rich cultural heritage, continuing to provide a sanctuary of peace and relaxation in the heart of the city.
