EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up to the enchanting scene of Nottingham Goose Fair, a cherished annual tradition that has captivated the hearts of locals and visitors alike since the 13th century. This evocative photograph, taken circa 1910, transports us back in time to an era of simple joys and communal celebration. The bustling crowd, a vibrant tapestry of humanity, is a testament to the enduring appeal of this historic fair. The air is thick with excitement and anticipation as families and friends gather to share in the merriment. Children's laughter rings out, mingling with the cacophony of barkers calling out to passersby, urging them to try their luck on the wheel of fortune or take a ride on the thrilling Scrambler. The aroma of roasted goose, a delicacy synonymous with the fair, wafts through the air, tantalizing the senses and drawing the crowd closer. The rich, golden hue of the roasting geese is a beacon of warmth and comfort, a symbol of the nourishing, communal experience that defines Nottingham Goose Fair. As the sun begins to set, the fairground lights twinkle to life, casting a magical glow over the scene. The merry-go-round comes to a gentle halt, and the Ferris wheel creaks to a stop, offering riders a breathtaking view of the fairgrounds and the twinkling lights of Nottingham beyond. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the power of community and tradition, and the simple, unadulterated joy that can be found in the most unexpected places. As we marvel at the beauty of this bygone era, we are reminded that the spirit of Nottingham Goose Fair lives on, continuing to bring people together in celebration and wonder.
