EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back in time to the quintessentially British scene of the Rustic Fete at Northfleet, Kent, in the year 1832. The photograph portrays the excitement and anticipation of a crowd gathered around a greasy pole, a traditional feature of rural fairs and festivities. The pole, slick with grease and covered in a large flitch of bacon, stands as a challenge for the brave and determined. Amidst the sea of onlookers, a successful competitor is seen making his ascent, his focus unwavering as he climbs higher and higher. The crowd watches with bated breath, their eyes fixed on the man's every move. The air is thick with the scent of the countryside, mingled with the tantalizing aroma of the bacon. The successful climber's triumph is met with jubilation from the crowd, their plaudits a testament to his achievement. The sense of camaraderie and community is palpable, as the victor is celebrated and congratulated. The Rustic Fete at Northfleet, with its simple pleasures and time-honored traditions, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the simple joy of a day out at the fair was enough to bring people together. This photograph, taken in 1832, is a poignant reminder of the enduring appeal of rural fairs and the sense of unity they foster. It invites us to appreciate the beauty and charm of the past, even as we marvel at the progress of time.
