EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for a team of horses outside The Plough pub in Britain, around the year 1910. The horses, with their heavy loads in tow, have paused for a much-needed drink and meal before embarking on their next arduous journey. Their thirst is quenched as they drink from a trough, while their feedbags are filled with fresh hay and grain. The horses' weary expressions and relaxed postures speak to the physical demands of transporting goods along the winding roads of the time. The pub, with its inviting sign and warm glow, offers a brief reprieve from the harsh realities of the road. The scene is a poignant reminder of the vital role horses played in transportation before the advent of motorized vehicles. This photograph, taken over a century ago, transports us back in time and offers a glimpse into the daily life of rural Britain during the early 20th century.
