EDITORS COMMENTS
A glimpse into the past: Thatching The Rest, a quaint cottage nestled in the picturesque village of Selworthy Green, Somerset, circa 1920s. The thatched roof, a symbol of traditional rural life in England, is being skillfully repaired by local thatchers. The thatchers, dressed in old clothes and wearing sturdy boots, are carefully placing bundles of straw and sedge onto the roof, securing them with rushes and reeds. The thatcher at the peak of the roof is expertly maneuvering the heavy bundles with the help of his assistant, while another thatcher secures the thatch from below with a ladder. The scene exudes a sense of history and craftsmanship, as the thatchers continue the age-old practice of maintaining the cottage's roof with natural materials. The thatched roof, with its distinctive pattern of ridges and valleys, adds to the charm of the cottage and the village, making it a beloved part of the rural landscape. The thatchers' dedication to their craft ensures that the cottage, and the history it holds, will continue to stand the test of time.
