EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of the past at The Edenbridge and Oxted Show on 2 August 1960. In this nostalgic image, we see an exquisite horse-drawn vehicle that had been in use before, during, and just after the Second World War. Proudly displayed in the Period Horse Drawn section of the show, this remarkable carriage takes us back to a time when horsepower was literal. The vehicle stands as a testament to English rural life and its deep connection with agriculture. Its sturdy wheels roll gracefully over the lush countryside terrain, symbolizing a simpler way of life rooted in tradition and hard work. The horse pulling it exudes strength and grace, embodying the bond between man and beast that has long characterized rural communities. Photographer John Topham expertly captures this scene, showcasing his talent for preserving moments frozen in time. His lens transports us to an era where buggies like these were not merely relics but essential modes of transportation. As we gaze upon this evocative photograph, let's take a moment to appreciate the rich history embedded within it – a snapshot of bygone days when horses ruled the roads and agricultural shows like The Edenbridge and Oxted Show brought communities together to celebrate their shared heritage.
