EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the defiant spirit of Jonathan Thatcher as he rides his cow through the bustling streets of Stockport Market on November 27, 1784. In a bold act of resistance against the newly imposed Pitt Horse Tax, Thatcher chose to transport his goods to the market atop his bovine companion instead of paying the exorbitant fee for using a horse. The Pitt Horse Tax, introduced in 1784, was a heavy burden on the working class, who relied on horses for their livelihoods and daily transportation. Thatcher's daring act of defiance was a symbol of the growing discontent towards the unfair and unjust taxation policies of the English government during the late 1700s. The image captures the attention of onlookers, some in awe of Thatcher's bravery, while others express their disapproval or amusement. The scene is set against the backdrop of the bustling Stockport Market, where merchants and traders haggle over prices and the aroma of fresh produce fills the air. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the struggles and hardships faced by the working class during this period in English history. It also highlights the resilience and determination of individuals like Thatcher, who refused to be cowed by oppressive taxation policies and instead chose to stand up for their rights. The image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique insight into the social, economic, and political climate of the time.
