EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment of pure joy and innocence as children at Marlesford Lodge engage in a lively game of skipping. Established in Hammersmith, London, Marlesford Lodge served as a feeder home for the Kensington and Chelsea School District's cottage homes located at Banstead in Surrey. The image, dating back to the year 1900, portrays a nurse and one of the children holding the long skipping rope, inviting others to join in the fun. During this era, the British welfare system was undergoing significant changes, with the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834 leading to the establishment of workhouses as a means of providing relief for the destitute. However, the cottage homes, also known as 'Industrial Schools,' represented a shift towards a more humane and educational approach to childcare. Instead of the harsh and dehumanizing conditions of workhouses, cottage homes aimed to provide a family-like environment and teach children valuable skills. The children in this photograph appear to be enjoying their time at Marlesford Lodge, away from the hardships and struggles they may have faced in their daily lives. The skipping game not only serves as a fun activity but also fosters a sense of community and togetherness among the children. This image offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the importance of play, joy, and the nurturing of young minds, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
