Photo of Charmouth, Village 1890

More about this scene

We look north-westwards up The Street to the Coach and Horses Hotel (left centre), where the Victorian landlord was James Ingram. Charmouth House is further up the hill (centre). The shopkeeper Edward Archer Vince (centre right) ran the archetypal general store, and could claim to supply just about everything. The sign lists 'linen and woollens, clothing, hats, fancy articles, boots and shoes, groceries and ironmongery'.
