1966 Clapper Crossing Exmoor Somerset Tarr
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1966, captures the essence of a simpler time as two men and their dogs cross the ancient Tarr Steps clapper bridge in Exmoor National Park, Somerset. The Tarr Steps, a 180-meter long, 5-meter wide, and 1.5-meter high prehistoric clapper bridge, spans the picturesque River Barle. The men, dressed in woolen coats and hats, appear focused and determined as they navigate the uneven stones with their canine companions in tow. The dogs, with their ears flapping in the wind and tails wagging, seem to relish the adventure. The crystal-clear water of the River Barle flows gently beneath the bridge, adding to the serene and idyllic atmosphere. The lush green landscape of Exmoor National Park stretches out in the background, providing a breathtaking backdrop to this timeless scene. This photograph, taken in the 1960s, offers a glimpse into the past and serves as a reminder of the enduring connection between people and nature.
