EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the Shaftesbury Home in Bisley, a farm school that provided education and training for children in need during the late 1800s. The image shows a group of boys, dressed in simple clothing, sitting cross-legged on the floor or intently focusing on their work at the sewing machines in the school's tailors shop. The boys appear to be engrossed in their tasks, their expressions revealing a mix of concentration and determination. The tailors shop was an essential part of the Shaftesbury Home, where boys were taught valuable skills that would prepare them for employment in the textile industry or other trades. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of these boys, who were given the opportunity to learn a trade and improve their prospects through the kindness and generosity of the Shaftesbury Home. The scene is a poignant reminder of the importance of education and the transformative power it holds, especially for those who face adversity. The photograph, taken in the 1890s, is a precious document of social history, providing a window into the past and shedding light on the lives of these young boys and the Farm School that shaped their futures.
