EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless process of creating a wood stack for charcoal burning, a traditional industry that was once common in forests such as the Forest of Dean and the New Forest in England during the 1910s. The meticulously arranged stack of staves, or wooden poles, is a testament to the skill and patience required to produce charcoal through this age-old method. The production of charcoal involved carefully layering and compacting the wood in a circular pile, leaving spaces for air to circulate. Once the stack was complete, it was covered with sods to help regulate the temperature and maintain a slow, steady burn. The process took several days, during which the stack was tended to ensure an even burn and prevent it from smoldering or going out. The charcoal making industry was an essential part of rural life in England, providing fuel for heating homes, cooking, and even forging metals. The wood used for charcoal production was typically sourced from the surrounding forests, making it a sustainable practice for the time. Despite the advent of modern methods, the image of a wood stack for charcoal burning continues to evoke a sense of history, tradition, and the connection between people and the natural world. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the rhythm of the seasons and the cycles of nature shaped daily life.
