EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Somerset Hunt - The West Somerset Foxhounds moving off in the High Street of Dunster" takes us back to a bygone era, specifically the 17th of November, 1930. Between the wars, fox hunting was a popular sport that brought together hounds, horses, and passionate riders. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the excitement and anticipation as the hunt begins. The scene is set against the picturesque backdrop of Dunster's High Street. Standing proudly nearby is the recently restored Yarn Market, an ancient monument preserved for generations to come. Its architectural beauty adds a touch of charm to this already enchanting moment. In the distance looms Dunster Castle, its grandeur serving as a reminder of history and tradition intertwined with this beloved pastime. As we gaze upon this image captured by Between The Wars from TopFoto, we can almost hear the thunderous sound of hooves hitting cobblestone streets and feel the adrenaline coursing through both horse and rider. Beyond its aesthetic appeal lies a deeper narrative—a glimpse into an era when fox hunting was not only seen as sport but also served as a symbol of camaraderie among fellow enthusiasts. This photograph invites us to step back in time and immerse ourselves in an age-old tradition that continues to evoke fascination even today.
