EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the carefree days of summer, as captured in this print from August 1932. The scene unfolds at Freebodys Lido, nestled along the picturesque banks of River Thames in Reading, Berkshire. From the vantage point of Caversham Bridge, one can witness a vibrant gathering of people eagerly awaiting their turn on the colossal slide that dominates the landscape. As if frozen in time, this snapshot encapsulates an era when simple pleasures brought immense joy. Families and friends flock to this idyllic spot seeking respite from sweltering heat and everyday worries. Laughter fills the air as children squeal with delight while descending down the giant slide into refreshing waters below. The Lido's popularity is evident by the throngs lining up along the riverbank; each person patiently anticipating their chance to experience pure exhilaration. This image serves as a testament to human resilience and our innate desire for shared experiences, even during challenging times like those faced in 1930s Britain. Preserved within STEAM Museum of GWR's collection, this photograph offers a glimpse into history – an invitation to immerse oneself in nostalgia and marvel at how leisure activities have evolved over generations. It serves as a reminder that amidst change and progress, there will always be timeless moments that bring us together.
