EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative image of peat fields in the picturesque village of Wedmore, Somerset, England. Dating back to the 1960s, this historical photograph captures the traditional process of peat cutting, a practice that has been carried out in the region for centuries. The scene unfolds across lush, green fields where peat is meticulously cut into squares using long, curved knives. Each square is then carefully lifted and shaped into slabs, before being stacked into round, towering piles to dry. This labor-intensive process takes approximately two months, transforming the damp peat into a valuable fuel source. As you gaze upon this image, you can almost hear the rhythmic sound of the peat cutters at work, their determination etched upon their faces as they toil under the English sky. The round stacks, reminiscent of ancient stone monuments, stand proud against the backdrop of the rolling hills, a testament to the rich history and industry of this region. The peat industry holds a significant place in the annals of history, providing a vital source of fuel for heating and cooking during times when other resources were scarce. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, inviting us to reflect upon the resilience and resourcefulness of those who came before us. Join us on a journey through time as we explore the beauty and history of this quintessentially British landscape, captured in stunning detail by the lens of a master photographer. This image is available as a high-quality print from Mary Evans Prints Online, perfect for adding a touch of nostalgia and charm to your home or office decor.
