EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Flanked by the stone walls of Langley Castle near Haydon Bridge" we are transported back to a typical English winter scene in December 1953. The image beautifully captures the essence of rural UK social history, showcasing a cherished pastime that has long been ingrained in British culture. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the meet of the haydon Foxhounds, an event eagerly anticipated by both locals and visitors alike. Against the backdrop of Langley Castle's majestic stone walls, a group of enthusiastic hunters on horseback gather with their loyal hounds. Their vibrant red hunting jackets create a striking contrast against the snowy landscape, adding a touch of elegance to this timeless scene. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from yesteryears, it becomes evident that hunting was not merely about chasing foxes; it represented camaraderie and leisure for those involved. Horses stand patiently beside their riders while dogs eagerly await instructions – all partaking in an age-old tradition passed down through generations. This print serves as a poignant reminder of simpler times when hobbies like hunting were deeply intertwined with rural life. It transports us back to an era where people found solace and joy in nature's embrace, away from bustling city streets. Preserved by NCJ / Kemsley, this remarkable piece allows us to relish in nostalgia and appreciate how our leisure activities have evolved over time. Let it serve as a testament to our rich cultural heritage and remind us
