EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time in the small town of Coagh, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland, circa early 1900s. The image offers a unique bird's-eye view of the bustling street scene below. On the left, the grandeur of the Royal Hotel stands proudly, its red-brick facade a testament to the town's rich history. The hotel, a popular destination for travelers and locals alike, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. As the eye moves to the right, a horse-drawn cart and a motor car are visible, symbolizing the intersection of the old and the new. The car, a marvel of modern technology, is a stark contrast to the traditional cart and the water wheel that can be seen in the foreground. The water wheel, a relic of the industrial revolution, once powered the textile mills that were a significant part of Coagh's economic landscape. The photograph also reveals the vibrant and diverse community that thrived in Coagh during this era. People of all ages and walks of life can be seen going about their daily business, adding to the rich tapestry of life in this small town. The image is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, a time when horse and cart shared the streets with motor cars, and the sound of the water wheel was a constant companion to the rhythm of everyday life.
