Outdoor refreshments JLP01_08_010288
CHEDDAR, SEDGEMOOR, SOMERSET. A group of people seated outside a cafe in Cheddar, during a Laing staff outing to Minehead.
In 1947, after a seven year break, Laing had resurrected their Area Outings for staff and their families, with trips taking place in May and June. This trip was for their South-West Area staff from Bristol and Plymouth. The shot appears to have been taken in Cheddar as they also stopped off here on the trip.

In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a group of people seated outside a charming café. They are basking in the warm sunshine while indulging in delicious food and drink. The atmosphere exudes the essence of the 1950s era, with everyone dressed impeccably in suits. The café itself is adorned with a thatched kiosk, adding to its quaint charm. It serves as an idyllic backdrop for these day trippers seeking respite from their daily routines. The tea garden surrounding them provides a serene setting where laughter and conversation fill the air. It is worth noting that this stopover at Cheddar was not only part of their journey but also added another layer of excitement to their already memorable outing. This remarkable photograph encapsulates not just a moment frozen in time but also embodies the spirit of Laing - fostering unity among staff members through shared experiences outside work hours.
