EDITORS COMMENTS
Whit Monday in Kidbrooke Lane, Eltham, June 1871: A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures the spirit of Whit Monday, also known as Pentecost Monday, in Kidbrooke Lane, Eltham, London, during the month of June in 1871. The moveable feast day in the Christian calendar, celebrated the day after Pentecost, is depicted here with an array of colourful characters and intriguing scenes. The image reveals a bustling crowd of pilgrims, dressed in their Sunday best, making their way along the cobblestone Kidbrooke Lane. The women wear elegant Victorian dresses, their parasols shielding them from the sun, while the men don suits and top hats. The children, dressed in their Sunday finest, accompany their families, some carrying flowers or toys. The pilgrims are on their way to the annual Whitsun procession, a tradition that dates back to medieval times. The occasion marked the end of the Easter season and the beginning of summer. It was a time for people to come together, to pray, and to celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1870s and the vibrant community spirit of Eltham. The horse-drawn carriages, the lush greenery, and the sense of camaraderie among the pilgrims all contribute to a captivating scene that remains as relevant today as it was over a century ago.
