EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the quaint English village of Bray, located near Maidenhead in Berkshire, is depicted in the 1910s. The village, nestled among lush greenery and picturesque landscapes, is home to several historic structures that have since gained renown due to their association with the world-renowned chef, Heston Blumenthal. At the heart of the scene, the Hinds Head pub, with its distinctive red-tiled roof and whitewashed walls, can be seen at the rear. This pub, now owned and run by Blumenthal, was once an ordinary inn that catered to weary travelers and local residents. Today, it is renowned for its gourmet cuisine, offering diners a unique culinary experience. To the right of the photograph, the Ringers building can be seen. This historic structure, now known as The Fat Duck, is Blumenthal's celebrated three-Michelin-star restaurant. The Fat Duck has gained international acclaim for its innovative and avant-garde dishes, such as snail porridge and bacon and egg ice cream. In the foreground, a horse-drawn cart and wagon are parked, adding to the rustic charm of the scene. The village church, with its tall tower and intricate stonework, can be seen in the distance, completing the idyllic tableau. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the rich history and charm of Bray, Berkshire, and the legacy of its famous culinary establishments.
