EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in 1955, we witness a scene of simple rural life at the Fruiterers Arms public house in Hartlebury, Worcestershire. The image captures the moment as a man in a white shirt and trousers, his sleeves rolled up, operates the hand pump in the back yard of the tavern. The hand pump, with its intricately detailed enamel design, stands proudly against the whitewashed wall, its hose filling a pail with clear, fresh water. The scene is reminiscent of a bygone era, with the red-brick house and the supple, green foliage in the background adding to the sense of history and tradition. Norman Synge Waller Budd, the photographer, skillfully captures the authenticity of the moment, the man's focused expression as he pumps the water, and the subtle details of the surroundings. The photograph is a testament to the simple pleasures of rural life in the 1950s, a time when hand pumps were still a common sight in the English countryside. The Fruiterers Arms, with its charming character and rich history, continues to stand as a symbol of the past, inviting us to take a moment to reflect on the simpler times and the enduring charm of rural England. The photograph is a beautiful reminder of the past, and the intricacies of the hand pump's design, from its Norman-inspired motifs to its sturdy construction, are a testament to the craftsmanship of the era. The image transports us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple act of filling a pail with water from a hand pump was a daily routine. The Fruiterers Arms, with its historic charm and the man's focused determination, stands as a symbol of the past, inviting us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of rural life.
