EDITORS COMMENTS
Brailsford Ploughing Match 15th October 1987 captures the essence of a bygone era in British agriculture. This stunning photo print, taken in the picturesque Derbyshire countryside, transports us back to the vibrant autumn day when farmers and their teams gathered for a display of skill and teamwork. The image showcases an impressive line-up of heavy horses pulling traditional ploughs, guided by skilled handlers who expertly navigate the fertile soil. The scene is a testament to the enduring bond between man and beast, as these majestic creatures work harmoniously with their human counterparts to create perfectly straight furrows. In this snapshot from the 1980s, we witness not only the dedication and craftsmanship of these hardworking farmers but also glimpse into a time when machinery was still intertwined with age-old farming practices. As tractors began replacing horse-drawn ploughs across Britain's fields, events like Brailsford Ploughing Match became cherished opportunities to celebrate tradition while embracing progress. This photograph encapsulates both nostalgia for simpler times and admiration for those who tirelessly cultivated our land. It serves as a reminder that agriculture is not just about crops; it is about community, heritage, and unity. As we gaze upon this piece from Memory Lane Prints' collection, let us reflect on how far we have come while cherishing the timeless values that continue to shape our agricultural landscape.
