EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the quintessential charm of Parish Church and Doagh Road in Ballyclare, County Antrim, Northern Ireland, circa early 1900s. The scene unfolds as two young children, dressed in turn-of-the-century attire, carefully navigate the cobblestone street with their woven baskets in hand. The children's playful expressions and the vibrant colors of their clothing contrast beautifully with the muted tones of the surrounding buildings and the imposing Parish Church in the background. The buildings on the left, with their red-tiled roofs and whitewashed walls, exude a sense of history and tradition. The intricate details of the brickwork, the shuttered windows, and the ornate chimneys transport us back in time. The Parish Church, with its tall spire and grand architecture, stands proudly on the right, a testament to the community's faith and resilience. Doagh Road, named after the Irish word for "the ridge," was once the main thoroughfare of Ballyclare. The street was bustling with activity, with horse-drawn carts, merchants, and locals going about their daily business. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the simple joys of life and the enduring beauty of this picturesque town in County Antrim.
