A 20 hour blizzard has caused serious dislocation in Kent, where villages have been almost cut off
A 20 hour blizzard has caused serious dislocation in Kent, where villages have been almost cut off and roads blocked by snow drifts which are in some districts as deep as 8 feet. Many houses are completely isolated. Snowploughs and gangs of men had to go to the rescue stranded motorists.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the aftermath of a relentless 20-hour blizzard that wreaked havoc in Kent, causing widespread dislocation. The villages in this picturesque region have been left almost cut off from the outside world, as roads are completely blocked by towering snow drifts reaching up to an astonishing 8 feet. In some areas, houses stand isolated amidst this wintry chaos. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness nature's power as sheep find themselves immersed in the deep snow at Kingsdown on the London Folkestone Road. These resilient creatures navigate through the treacherous terrain with determination and grace, their woolly coats blending seamlessly with the monochrome landscape. The year is 1938, a tumultuous period between two devastating wars that shaped Europe's history. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of rural life during those times – where communities were forced to come together to overcome adversity brought upon them by Mother Nature herself. As stranded motorists desperately await rescue, brave snowploughs and dedicated teams of men work tirelessly to clear paths for transportation. This image encapsulates both the beauty and harshness of winter; it speaks volumes about human resilience when faced with daunting challenges. Preserved by TopFoto. co. uk for generations to come, this historic press photography offers us a glimpse into a past era while reminding us of our own vulnerability against nature's forces.
