EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in the history of Sandwich, a historic town in Kent, England, during the latter half of the 20th century. The image portrays a group of World War II refugees making their way towards the Sandwich Barbican, a medieval fortification that has stood proudly since the middle of the 16th century. The refugees, who have likely spent long days in the cramped and uncomfortable conditions of Kitchener Camp, are seen here making the most of their brief respite. From 4:30 to 7pm each day, the main gate of the camp was opened, allowing the refugees to leave and explore the town of Sandwich, which was just a short 15-minute walk away. The Sandwich Barbican, with its impressive walls and towers, served as a symbol of safety and security for these refugees, who had been displaced by the ravages of war. The historical significance of the structure must have offered them a sense of connection to a time before the conflict, a time of peace and stability. As they walked towards the Barbican, the refugees would have passed through the picturesque streets of Sandwich, taking in the sights and sounds of this charming town. The image of the refugees, their expressions filled with hope and determination, serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength of the human spirit, even in the darkest of times. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into a little-known aspect of Sandwich's history, a time when the town's medieval walls provided refuge and solace to those who had lost everything in the chaos of war.
