EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of Haverfordwest's bustling street carnival in South Wales, circa 1894. The historical town of Haverfordwest, located in Pembrokeshire, Dyfed, comes alive with the sound of horse hooves and the cheers of the crowd as decorated, horse-drawn floats make their way up the cobblestone high street. The scene is a feast for the eyes, with people of all ages donning Victorian-era hats and attire, watching from the pavements and windows. The main street is a riot of color, with flags and banners fluttering in the breeze, and the scent of manure and fresh flowers mingling in the air. The horse-drawn floats, adorned with intricate designs and elaborate decorations, are pulled by strong horses, their manes and tails bedecked with ribbons and flowers. The crowd, a sea of bowler hats and umbrellas, eagerly awaits the approach of each float, snapping photos and clapping in delight. This photograph captures a moment in time, a glimpse into the past, and offers a fascinating insight into the history and traditions of Haverfordwest and the surrounding area. The cobblestone roadway, once the main artery of the town, is now a reminder of a bygone era, when life moved at a slower pace, and community spirit was at the heart of every event.
