EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment of innocence and warmth in the midst of the tumultuous events of World War I. In the lush garden of Quex Park, third-generation resident Antoinette Powell-Cotton (1913-1997) is seen playing with her beloved Nanny, Mrs Cook, in August 1916. The Powell-Cotton family, including Antoinette, remained at Quex Park throughout most of the war period. They lived in one of the estate houses with their devoted Nanny, known affectionately as 'Cooker.' During this time, Quex Park became a vital hub for the war effort. The Quex Park VAD (Voluntary Aid Detachment) Hospital opened on October 15, 1914, and closed on January 31, 1919. The hospital was run by Kent/178, the Birchington Detachment, with Hannah Powell-Cotton (1881-1964), wife of Major Percy HG Powell-Cotton (1866-1940) of Quex Park, serving as the Commandant. The Powell-Cottons' home became a sanctuary for the wounded soldiers, providing them with much-needed care and respite. Despite the challenging circumstances, young Antoinette's childhood was filled with moments of joy and companionship, such as this one with her cherished Nanny. This photograph offers a poignant reminder of the resilience and adaptability of families during times of war and the enduring bond between a child and their caregiver.
