EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless charm of The Old Flying Horse Inn at Broughton Aluph in Ashford, Kent. Dating back to 1400, this historic inn holds a significant place in history as it once brewed ale for the weary pilgrims en route to Canterbury. In this picture, we witness a fascinating juxtaposition between tradition and academia. A procession of university professors donning their distinguished gowns and mortarboards can be seen parading opposite the pub. Their presence adds an air of intellectual grandeur against the backdrop of this quaint establishment. As they march with purpose, their scholarly robes billow gracefully in the wind. The hanging sign proudly displays its name while showcasing intricate clapboard architecture that has stood strong through centuries past. Nestled on a corner, The Old Flying Horse Inn exudes warmth and character that beckons passersby to step inside and experience its rich history firsthand. An old man stands nearby, perhaps reminiscing about days gone by when he too walked these streets as a young scholar or shared tales over pints with fellow travelers. A flag flutters atop a proud pole, symbolizing unity and heritage. John Topham's skillful lens immortalizes this moment where time seems suspended - where ancient traditions meet academic prowess amidst the allure of an age-old pub.
