EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Blend of Tradition and Progress: Old Mill Bakery, Wannock, Polegate, England, 1910s" 2.. This evocative photograph captures the Old Mill Bakery in Wannock, Polegate, near Eastbourne, Sussex, England, during the 1910s. The image showcases a harmonious blend of tradition and progress, as horse-drawn baker's vans coexist with a motor van in the bustling bakery yard. The Old Mill Bakery, a local institution, had been a staple in the community for generations. The horse-drawn vans, with their distinctive designs and intricate details, were a testament to the time-honored craft of baking. The horses, harnessed and ready to transport freshly baked goods to customers, embodied the charm and simplicity of a bygone era. However, the arrival of the motor van signified the encroachment of modern technology. The motor van, with its sleek design and efficiency, represented the future of transportation and delivery. The contrast between the two methods of transportation highlights the transition from a rural, horse-drawn economy to a more industrialized, motorized one. The Old Mill Bakery continued to thrive, adapting to the changing times while maintaining its commitment to producing high-quality, fresh baked goods. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history and evolution of the bakery industry in England during the early 20th century. This image, with its intriguing narrative and historical significance, is an essential addition to any collection focusing on the history of food production, transportation, or rural England.
