EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the essence of a carefree childhood in the picturesque village of Allerford, Somerset during the 1970s. Three boys in red, yellow, and teal clothing, dressed for a day of adventure, stand at the edge of the Packhorse Bridge, their eyes fixed on the crystal-clear stream below. The eldest boy, wearing a red jumper and holding a long stick, looks determined as he contemplates crossing the bridge. The middle boy, in a yellow shirt, leans over the water, dipping his hand in to test the temperature. The youngest boy, wearing a blue teeshirt, watches his brothers with a curious expression. The Packhorse Bridge, a tall, stone structure with a distinctive red-tiled roof, spans the stream and connects the village on either side. The bridge, with its tall chimneys and quaint cottages in the background, is a testament to the rich history and rustic charm of Allerford. A loyal and playful dog, with its ears perked up and tail wagging, joins the boys at the edge of the bridge. The dog's presence adds to the idyllic scene, as the boys and their canine companion share a moment of joy and camaraderie. The scene is completed by the gentle flow of the clear, cool water over the rocks, the sound of birds singing in the trees, and the warm sunlight filtering through the leaves. This photograph captures a moment in time, a moment of innocence and happiness, that is both timeless and quintessentially English.
