EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The High Street was a little crowded at Edenbridge, Kent" we are transported back to the bustling streets of 1950s England. The image captures a momentous event as the Old Surrey and Burstow Hunt gather just around the corner in the showground of the Edenbridge Fat stock Show. As sunlight bathes the scene in a warm November glow, spectators line both sides of the street, eagerly awaiting the sight of fox hounds and their riders setting off on their hunting expedition. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation, as locals and visitors alike come together to witness this traditional spectacle. Amidst all this excitement, one cannot help but notice Boots Chemist standing proudly in view - an emblematic presence that has witnessed countless historic moments unfold on these very streets. Its iconic storefront serves as a reminder of how deeply rooted traditions intertwine with everyday life. This photograph by Topography encapsulates not only a snapshot from history but also highlights how communal events can bring people together across generations. It immortalizes a time when high streets were vibrant hubs of activity where local customs merged seamlessly with daily routines.
