Capturing the Essence of Tradition - R A Draghounds Meet at The Bull Hotel, Farningham - 31 October 1935
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This remarkable print by John Topham takes us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the vibrant hunting culture of interwar Britain. Against the backdrop of a quaint village setting, we witness an extraordinary gathering as members of the Royal Artillery Draghounds assemble outside The Bull Hotel in Farningham. The image exudes an air of elegance and camaraderie as huntsmen donning traditional attire prepare for their exhilarating pursuit. Majestic horses stand tall, eagerly awaiting their riders' command, while loyal hounds impatiently bark with anticipation. This snapshot captures not only the thrill of the chase but also highlights the deep bond between man and animal. Amidst this lively scene stands a vintage double-decker bus that serves as both transport and spectator platform for enthusiastic followers who have come from far and wide to witness this grand spectacle. As they line up along the road's edge, one can almost hear their excited chatter mingling with barking hounds. Topham's monochrome masterpiece immortalizes an important moment in history when rural traditions thrived despite societal changes brought on by modernization. It is through such evocative imagery that we are transported back to simpler times, reminding us of our rich heritage and celebrating timeless customs that continue to shape our cultural identity today.
