EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of community and celebration in the picturesque Cotswold village of Draycott during the historic coronation of King George VI in 1937. A group of villagers, including Charles Withers, George Cook, Bill Langbridge, and Bert Hooper, proudly don their rosettes and ribbons, reflecting their loyalty and excitement for the new monarch. The men, dressed in smart attire, exude a sense of joy and camaraderie as they gather together for this special occasion. The scene is set against the backdrop of the quintessentially English village, with its charming stone cottages and lush green surroundings. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a simpler time when the coronation of a king was a cause for great celebration in the close-knit communities of the Cotswolds and beyond. The 1930s may have been a period of economic hardship, but this photograph serves as a reminder of the enduring strength and resilience of the human spirit.
