EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the grandeur of The Municipal Corporations Jubilee Banquet held at the Freemason's Hall in London on the 7th of December 1885. The banquet was organized to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Municipal Corporations Act of 1835, an important piece of legislation that enabled 148 listed boroughs to establish their own Town Councils, elected by rate-paying residents. The Municipal Corporations Act, which followed the Reform Act of 1832, was a significant milestone in the history of local government in Britain. The Reform Act had granted the right to vote to a larger segment of the population, and the Municipal Corporations Act built upon this foundation by giving more power to the towns and boroughs. The Jubilee Banquet was an opportunity for local dignitaries, council members, and other distinguished guests to come together and celebrate this important anniversary. The Freemason's Hall, with its impressive architecture and grand decor, provided the perfect setting for the occasion. The photograph shows a sea of top hats and formal attire, as the guests sit down to enjoy a sumptuous feast. The atmosphere is one of celebration and camaraderie, as the attendees raise their glasses to toast the past, present, and future of municipal government in Britain. This photograph is an important historical record of a pivotal moment in the development of local government in Britain. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of those who shaped the political landscape of the time, and reminding us of the enduring importance of local democracy.
