EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Gathering at the Old Aldgate Pump, London, c.1880 This evocative photograph captures a moment in time as a crowd of men, including a policeman, stand around the Old Aldgate Pump in London during the late 19th century. The Old Aldgate Pump, a historic water pump located in the Aldgate area of the city, was a familiar sight to Londoners during this period. The image, taken around 1880, showcases the daily life of Londoners during this era. The men, dressed in various attire, appear engaged in conversation, some with their hands in their pockets, while others lean against the pump or look on curiously. The presence of a policeman suggests that this was a public gathering place, where people came to socialize, exchange news, and perhaps even solve community issues. The Old Aldgate Pump, an essential water source for the local community, was a vital part of London's history. The pump was installed in the late 17th century to provide clean water to the residents of Aldgate, an area that was prone to cholera outbreaks due to contaminated water sources. The pump's installation marked a significant improvement in the city's water supply system and helped reduce the number of cholera cases. This photograph provides a glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the history of London and its people. The Old Aldgate Pump, though no longer in existence, remains an important part of the city's rich history, symbolizing the community spirit and resilience of Londoners during this period.
