EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Played in the Pub: Skittles at the Shave Cross Inn" by James O. Davies, transports us back in time to a quintessential English pub scene in Bridport, Dorset. The image, captured by Davies for Historic England, showcases a delightful detail of a traditional skittles game in progress at the Shave Cross Inn. The pub, bathed in the warm, inviting glow of the interior lights, exudes a sense of camaraderie and relaxation. The wooden bar, adorned with an array of glasses and bottles, stands proudly at the back of the room, while the skittles alley takes center stage. The players, focused intently on their game, are poised to throw their balls, their expressions a mix of determination and anticipation. The worn, checkered floor, the scuffed skittles, and the faded, peeling wallpaper all speak to the history and character of this beloved local institution. Skittles, a popular English recreational game, has been a staple of pub culture for centuries. The game, which involves knocking down ten pins with a ball, is simple yet engaging, making it the perfect activity for a lively pub gathering. The photograph captures the essence of this timeless pastime, offering a glimpse into the rich history and traditions of English pub culture. The Shave Cross Inn, with its charming, rustic atmosphere, stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of these communal spaces, where friends and strangers alike come together to share a drink, a laugh, and a game of skittles.
