EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Katherine MacFee takes us back to a simpler time in the early 1920s. The image showcases a group of young boys from Burton Bradstock School, their curious eyes peering over a stone wall onto the serene waterscape of River Bride. Nestled in the idyllic village of Burton Bradstock, West Dorset, this charming elementary school holds an important place in local history. The Victorian-era architecture of Burton Bradstock School stands proudly behind these adventurous youngsters as they engage with their surroundings. Their innocent faces reflect the joy and wonder that childhood brings, as they explore the world around them. It is evident that this primary school played an integral role in shaping their formative years. The tranquil River Bride gracefully flows beneath them, its gentle current mirroring the peacefulness of this picturesque scene. This waterscape has undoubtedly witnessed countless generations grow up alongside its banks throughout history. Katherine MacFee's skillful composition transports us back to a time when life was simpler and nature held great significance for children's playtime adventures. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, we are reminded of the timeless beauty found within our natural landscapes and how it continues to shape our fondest memories today.
