Bathing At Dunbar
July 1923: Holidaymakers in the bathing pool at Dunbar, Lothian, on the North Sea. Dunbar Castle, built in the 9th century, was destroyed by Cromwell in 1650 and he used the stones to improve the harbour which enabled locals to develop the fishing industry. Dunbar became a thriving seaport and also has a local brewing industry. (Photo by Alfred Hind Robinson/A H Robinson/Getty Images)

Bathing At Dunbar - A Glimpse into the Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured by Alfred Hind Robinson in July 1923, transports us to a nostalgic scene at Dunbar, Lothian. As we gaze upon this panoramic view of holidaymakers frolicking in the bathing pool on the shores of the North Sea, we are reminded of a simpler time. Dunbar's rich history unfolds before our eyes. The remnants of Dunbar Castle, once a formidable fortress dating back to the 9th century but destroyed by Cromwell in 1650, stand as silent witnesses to centuries gone by. Interestingly, these very stones were repurposed by Cromwell to enhance the harbor infrastructure - an act that inadvertently propelled local fishermen towards prosperity and established Dunbar as a bustling seaport. Beyond its maritime heritage, this charming Scottish town boasts another claim to fame - its brewing industry. Nestled amidst breathtaking natural beauty and rugged rock formations, Dunbar has nurtured a tradition of crafting fine brews that have delighted locals for generations. Alfred Hind Robinson's skillful lens captures not only the joyous spirit of holidaymakers enjoying their leisurely dip but also offers us a glimpse into an era when life seemed slower-paced and more connected with nature. This remarkable print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical treasure – transporting us back in time while reminding us of Scotland's enduring allure.
