In this photo print, we witness a momentous occasion as Mr. Jonas Kenyon, adorned with civic dignity, takes the honor of cutting the first slice of Denby Dales' extraordinary six-ton pie. This colossal creation was baked to commemorate the four Royal births that took place this year in 1964. The tradition of baking these remarkable pies dates back an impressive 220 years in this quaint village. Normally reserved for national special occasions and events, these pies are far from ordinary. They are true behemoths, filled with an abundance of savory meat and sometimes potatoes. Captured on September 7th, 1964, the image showcases a large group of people gathered around Mr. Kenyon as he wields his knife with precision and pride. The atmosphere is undoubtedly charged with excitement and anticipation as everyone eagerly awaits their own portion of this culinary marvel. This snapshot from the 1960s offers us a glimpse into not only a unique village tradition but also highlights how food can bring communities together in celebration. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernization and changing times, some customs endure through generations. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints staff, this photograph encapsulates both history and culture within its frame - reminding us to cherish our traditions while embracing new beginnings
