EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Christmas Dinner OP07008" captures a heartwarming scene from December 1915. Set in the elegant Combe Bank House, nestled amidst the picturesque surroundings of Combe Bank Road in Sundridge With Ide Hill, Sevenoaks, Kent, it offers a glimpse into the lives of brave soldiers during World War I. In this poignant image, members of the Lancashire Regiment are seen gathered around a beautifully adorned table for their Christmas meal. The festive spirit is palpable as these courageous men take respite from their duties to enjoy a moment of camaraderie and indulgence. Their faces reflect both weariness and joy as they savor every bite of food and sip of drink. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of Christmas festivities but also in its portrayal of humanity amidst conflict. It serves as a reminder that even during times of war, bonds can be forged over shared meals and moments like these provide solace amid chaos. Preserved by Historic England Archive, this remarkable snapshot transports us back in time to witness an intimate celebration within the walls of Combe Bank House. As we gaze upon these soldiers enjoying their well-deserved feast, we are reminded to cherish our own holiday gatherings with loved ones while honoring those who have sacrificed so much for our freedom.
