1. Title: A Blissful Afternoon at Wickstead Park, Kettering, Northamptonshire - Circa 1910s 2.. Step back in time and immerse yourself in the enchanting atmosphere of Wickstead Park, Kettering, Northamptonshire, as depicted in this photograph from the early 1900s. The tranquil scene showcases the picturesque lake, surrounded by lush greenery and dotted with quaint rowboats. In the foreground, an elderly lady, believed to be Sir Steve Redgrave's great-grandmother, gracefully navigates her boat along the serene waters. Her timeless elegance and the gentle ripples created by her oars add a sense of peace and serenity to the image. The classic boating attire she wears – a long, flowing skirt, a blouse, and a sun hat – is a testament to the era's charm and refinement. Wickstead Park, established in the late 1800s, was once a popular destination for locals and visitors alike, offering a delightful respite from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The park's beautiful gardens, picturesque lake, and various recreational activities made it an ideal location for leisurely afternoons spent in the company of friends and family. This photograph serves as a captivating reminder of a bygone era, inviting us to appreciate the simple pleasures of a day spent at the lake, surrounded by nature and the joy of shared experiences.
