EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the rural landscapes of Freethorpe, Norfolk in September 1959. In this snapshot captured by the talented photographer Hallam Ashley, we are presented with a glimpse into the traditional farming practices of that era. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the two magnificent horse-drawn farm wagons standing proudly in front of us. These sturdy vehicles were still an integral part of daily life on farms during this time, faithfully transporting crops and supplies across vast fields. Their weathered appearance tells tales of countless journeys taken through muddy terrain and under scorching sun. As our eyes wander further into the frame, we notice a portable elevator positioned behind these wagons. This ingenious contraption was used to construct haystacks - a vital task during harvest season. The sight evokes memories of hardworking farmers laboring tirelessly to gather bountiful yields from their arable lands. Hallam Ashley's skilled lens captures not only the physical elements but also conveys a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when agriculture relied heavily on manual labor and horses were trusted companions in every farmer's journey. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to our rich agricultural heritage, reminding us how far we have come while honoring those who dedicated their lives to shaping our countryside.
