Major and Mrs. J.B. Paget's Summer Soiree at Ibstock Place, Roehampton (1929): A Delightful Afternoon of Hot Weather Habits This charming photograph, taken from The Tatler, captures the essence of a delightful summer afternoon at the residence of Major and Mrs. J.B. Paget in Roehampton, London, during the roaring twenties. The scene is set at Ibstock Place, an elegant country estate, where Major and Mrs. Paget have graciously invited friends and family for a refreshing bathing party. The sun-soaked day begins with a invigorating swim in the crystal-clear waters of the estate's pool. The Charlot Girls, an alluring group of young women, are seen relishing the sweet taste of ripe raspberries and cream, their laughter and joy echoing through the tranquil surroundings. Their playful attire, consisting of short, stylish swimsuits, is a testament to the carefree spirit of the era. Among the guests, Miss Edvina Moss and Major and Mrs. Paget's elder daughter, Wifred, are captured in a moment of leisurely relaxation. The trio enjoys the warm sunshine and the delightful company of their friends. In the background, actor Barrie Oliver officiates a wall game, adding an element of friendly competition to the idyllic scene. As the day unfolds, the guests continue to indulge in the simple pleasures of the season – sunbathing, swimming, and delightful conversations. This photograph serves as a captivating reminder of the joys of a bygone era, where the warmth of the sun, the laughter of friends, and the sweet taste of summer fruit combined to create memories that would last a lifetime.
