EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the Courtyard of the George Inn, Norton St. Philip, Bath, near Trowbridge, Somerset, England, as it appeared in 1906. The George Inn, a charming 17th-century coaching inn, has long been a focal point of this picturesque village nestled in the rolling hills of Somerset. The black-and-white photograph reveals a bustling scene of activity, with horses and carts occupying the cobblestone courtyard, their drivers engaged in lively conversation. The inn's red-tiled roof and half-timbered walls, adorned with ivy, loom in the background, providing a sense of warmth and shelter from the elements. The George Inn has a rich history, having served as a resting place for weary travelers and coaches on the London to Bath route for centuries. Its strategic location along the ancient Fosse Way, a Roman road, made it an essential stopover for those making the journey between the two historic cities. Despite the passage of time, the George Inn remains a beloved destination for visitors to Norton St. Philip, offering a taste of history and tradition in a charming and welcoming setting. Today, the inn is renowned for its excellent food, cozy accommodations, and friendly service, making it a must-visit for anyone exploring the beautiful county of Somerset.
