EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print taken on 26 October 1920, we witness a significant moment in Tiverton's history. The image showcases the Tiverton Town Council's commendable effort to address fuel poverty by purchasing Newts Hill Woods. A group of hardworking men can be seen diligently chopping down trees, their axes swiftly cutting through the tree trunks. This photograph captures an important social program initiated by the council to provide much-needed fuel for the townspeople. As each tree falls, it symbolizes hope and warmth being brought into countless homes during a time when heating resources were scarce. The scene exudes a sense of unity and purpose as these woodmen work together towards a common goal. Their determination is palpable, reflecting not only their employment but also their dedication to serving their community. Amidst Europe's tumultuous early 20th century landscape, this image stands as a testament to Devon's commitment to conservation and sustainability. By carefully logging these woods, Tiverton ensures responsible forestry practices while simultaneously addressing the pressing issue of fuel poverty that plagued many households at that time. As we gaze upon this historic snapshot frozen in time, let us remember those who labored tirelessly with saws in hand - shaping not just logs but also forging pathways towards progress and betterment for all residents of Tiverton.
