EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of resilience and determination during the First World War, as a milkmaid named D Pentreath goes about her daily routine in the picturesque village of Madresfield, Worcestershire. The year is 1915, and the rural community is doing its part to support the war effort by continuing to work the land and ensure the food supply for their families and the wider population. The milkmaid is seen here with Midget, her Jersey cow, in the lush green fields of the English countryside. The milkmaid wears a simple yet practical outfit, with a white blouse, apron, and bonnet, as she expertly milks Midget by the side of the road. The cow, with her distinctive black and white spots, looks calm and content as she provides the essential milk that would be transported to homes and businesses in the area. The scene is idyllic, yet the backdrop of the war is ever-present. The First World War had disrupted traditional farming practices, with many men away fighting, and women and children taking on new roles to keep the agricultural industry running. The milkmaid's work was essential, not only for the local community but also for the war effort, as milk was a vital source of nutrition for the troops. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and adaptations made during the 1910s, as the rural community of Madresfield continued to work the land and support the war effort in their own way. The milkmaid and her cow represent the spirit of rural England during a time of great upheaval and change.
