EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Easter Fair, Norwich a98_17164" takes us back in time to the vibrant city of Norwich in Norfolk. The image showcases one of the long-standing traditions of this historic town - its annual Easter fair. Held on the grounds where the cattle market once thrived, this fair was a cherished event that brought joy and excitement to both locals and visitors alike. In this particular snapshot captured by Hallam Ashley in March 1948, we witness a sailor demonstrating his marksmanship at the shooting gallery. Surrounding him are children eagerly watching with wide-eyed fascination as he skillfully aims for his target. Their faces filled with anticipation and wonder perfectly encapsulate the spirit of recreation and leisure that permeated through every corner of this bustling fairground. The composition beautifully captures not only the lively atmosphere but also serves as a testament to community bonding during simpler times. It is evident from their expressions that these individuals have momentarily escaped their daily routines to revel in an afternoon filled with laughter, camaraderie, and shared experiences. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved by Historic England, we are reminded of how important it is to cherish our cultural heritage. This photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the rich tapestry woven by generations before us - one rooted in tradition, celebration, and human connection.
