EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting 19th-century photograph of The Wagon and Horses Inn, Beckhampton, Wiltshire, England. This quaint thatched wayside inn, with its inviting low beams and ancient oak doors, has been mentioned in Charles Dickens' classic tale, "The Bagman's Story." The inn, nestled in the picturesque countryside, was a popular resting place for travelers and weary coaches, as depicted in the image by the horses hitched outside. The Wagon and Horses, with its rich history and rustic charm, has stood the test of time, offering a glimpse into the past. Dickens' story, set in the 1830s, vividly describes the inn as a place where the bagman, a character from the old coaching days, would collect tolls and distribute the mail. The innkeeper, a jovial and hospitable man, would warmly welcome travelers, providing them with a hearty meal and a comfortable bed for the night. This photograph, taken in the 19th century, captures the essence of The Wagon and Horses Inn, offering a window into a bygone era. The thatched roof, the ancient oak doors, and the horses hitched outside all contribute to the idyllic scene, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace. The Wagon and Horses Inn, a charming piece of history, continues to welcome visitors today, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere, much like it did in Dickens' time.
