Captioned Cottager Flood Flooded Handing Loaf Norfolk Norwich Pottergate
EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the moment of compassion and community during a devastating flood in Norwich, Norfolk, England during the 1910s. The image, titled "Handing a loaf to a flooded-out cottager near West Pottergate," depicts a kind-hearted individual extending a hand and offering a loaf of bread to a resident whose home has been inundated by the floodwaters. The scene unfolds on the streets of Norwich, with the distinctive architecture of the city's historic buildings partially submerged in the background. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and solidarity of the community during a time of crisis. The image is believed to have been taken during the 1912 flood, which affected numerous areas in East Anglia and caused significant damage to homes and infrastructure. The photograph, with its timeless message of human kindness and solidarity, serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of coming together during times of adversity.
