EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a charming scene from circa 1905, featuring a horse-drawn milk cart with its driver, E Betteridge, from Malvern Worcs Link Farm Diary. The cart is adorned with a large churn and both the name of the milkman and the farm are clearly visible on the side. This snapshot in time offers a glimpse into the daily life of early 20th century dairy delivery.
The horse stands patiently harnessed to the cart, ready to transport fresh milk to homes in the surrounding area. E Betteridge appears proud and professional as he poses for the camera, embodying the hardworking spirit of small-scale dairy farmers of that era.
The details captured in this image speak volumes about a bygone era when local dairies supplied households with their daily milk needs. The rustic charm of this scene is enhanced by the handwritten texts on the cart, adding a personal touch to an otherwise utilitarian object.
Holt's Battlefields Collection has preserved this piece of history through their photo print, allowing viewers to step back in time and appreciate the simplicity and authenticity of early 20th century rural life.
