EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, a group of people gather outside the Lacon Yarmouth Ales public house, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of a bustling Victorian or Edwardian street. The year is circa 1900, and the scene transports us back in time to an era of horse-drawn transportation and community camaraderie. At the heart of the image are two powerful dray horses, their coats glistening with sweat, harnessed and ready to pull the heavy barrels of ale from the public house to various destinations. The men in the group, dressed in workman's clothing, are busy attending to the horses, ensuring they are well-fed and watered before the next delivery. The public house, with its ornate signage and red-brick facade, stands proudly in the background. The corner building, with its inviting atmosphere, would have been a popular gathering place for locals and travelers alike, offering a warm respite from the cold and rain or a refreshing pint of ale on a hot summer day. The street scene is filled with activity, with horse-drawn carts and carriages passing by, and pedestrians hurrying along the cobblestone road. The horses' hooves clatter against the stones, adding to the cacophony of sounds that fill the air. This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of life in the late 19th or early 20th century, when horse-drawn transportation was the norm, and the local pub was the heart of the community. It's a reminder of a simpler time, when life moved at a slower pace, and the bonds of friendship and community were forged through shared experiences and daily routines.
