Basking in the Sunshine: A Scene from Brixham Harbour, Devon, in the 1960s This photograph, taken in the 1960s, captures the essence of a sunny day in the charming coastal town of Brixham, Devon. The image is filled with the vibrant hues of the blue sky, the shimmering water, and the warm tones of the houses and buildings that line the harbour. In the foreground, a group of men, dressed in old overcoats and caps, are deep in conversation near a pub, their faces expressing a range of emotions from grumpy to jovial. The pub, with its inviting sign bearing the Crown and Anchor insignia, beckons to passersby, promising a refreshing pint of ale. Further along the harbour, a man in a senior service cap repairs a fishing net, his focus intently on the task at hand. Nearby, a dog and its owner watch the activity with curiosity. The commercial buildings, including the office of Starkey and Knight, and the tobacconist, add to the bustling atmosphere of the seaside resort. The scene is a snapshot of a bygone era, evoking memories of simpler times and the enduring charm of the British coast. With its rich history, picturesque harbour, and warm sunshine, Brixham continues to draw visitors from near and far, offering a respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
