About this work

This is a black-and-white photo of a narrow street lined with old buildings. The left side has a half-timbered house with dark wood beams and small, square windows. A person stands at the far end, holding a broom, while another walks farther down the cobblestone path. The right side shows simpler stone walls and a few lanterns hanging above. The photo is labeled *"Kings Head Hotel, Aylesbury"* in the corner, hinting at a real place. The buildings look like they’re from a long time ago, with steep roofs and uneven streets. If you like old photos, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more.
