EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the harsh winter of 1963, a determined driver navigates through a deep and treacherous snowdrift on a country lane near Crediton, Devon. The heavy snowfall of that season had brought the region to a standstill, with roads becoming impassable and everyday life coming to a near-halt. The photo captures the resilience and tenacity of the people living in rural areas during those extreme weather conditions. The road, which had been cut through the snowdrift by a bulldozer, is barely visible under the thick layers of snow. The car, with its tires spinning, appears to be making slow progress, as the woman at the wheel bravely pushes forward. The sides of the lane are high and covered in snow, creating a sense of isolation and remoteness. This image, taken in the 1960s, is a snapshot of a bygone era, when the challenges of the natural world were more directly felt and confronted. The scene is a reminder of the harsh realities of winter in the countryside and the resourcefulness of those who lived through it. The photo also serves as a historical document, capturing a moment in time that is now part of Devon's rich history.
