EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a unique piece of Suffolk's history - the County fencibles, also known as the Suffolk Rats, called to arms in 1795 to protect their precious cheese. The image showcases a group of determined rats standing guard over their prized possession, ready to defend it at all costs.
The County fencibles were a volunteer militia formed during times of war or threat of invasion, and this particular group from Suffolk took on the nickname "the Rats" due to their tenacity and resourcefulness in protecting what was important to them. In this case, that meant safeguarding their beloved cheese from any potential threats.
As we look at this historical photograph, we are transported back in time to an era where communities banded together for mutual protection and defense. The image serves as a reminder of the resilience and spirit of those who came before us, willing to fight for what they held dear.
Through this print from Mary Evans Prints Online, we are given a glimpse into the past - a snapshot of Suffolk's rich heritage and the brave individuals who stood up in times of need. It is a testament to the strength and unity found within communities like the County fencibles, whose legacy lives on through images such as these.
