EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the charm and character of Shrewsbury town centre as it looked in 1988. Taken from Fish Street, the image shows Milk Street and the iconic Wheatsheaf pub in the foreground. The pub, with its distinctive sign and red-brick facade, has been a beloved landmark in Shrewsbury for centuries. The photograph also features a lone cyclist, dressed in 1980s attire, making his way along the cobblestone street. The high angle viewpoint and the cyclist's perspective add a sense of depth and movement to the scene. The bicycle, a common mode of transportation during the 1980s, adds a touch of nostalgia to the image. The photograph was taken by renowned British photographer Philip Dunn, who expertly captured the unique atmosphere of Shrewsbury during this era. The town centre, with its medieval architecture and picturesque streets, has remained largely unchanged since this photograph was taken. However, the absence of modern vehicles and commercial signage adds to the timeless quality of the image. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of Shrewsbury's rich history and the charm of the 1980s. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who have walked these streets before us and the daily life of the town during this period. This photograph is a must-have for anyone with a love for Shropshire, British history, or 1980s nostalgia.
