EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era at the Cart and Horses beer house in Sarratt, Hertfordshire. As we gaze upon this picturesque scene from the west, we are transported back to a time when James C Smith held the license to sell beer at this charming establishment. The Cart and Horses stands proudly amidst its idyllic surroundings on Moor Lane, exuding an undeniable rustic charm that is both inviting and nostalgic. Its traditional architecture hints at a rich history steeped in warm hospitality and conviviality. Although no longer serving as a beer house today, this beloved building has been affectionately renamed the Old Cart & Horses over time. Standing alongside it is Hillsdown Cottage, which adds to the quaint allure of this enchanting location. Katherine MacFee's skillful lens beautifully captures not only the physical beauty of this historic landmark but also evokes emotions of nostalgia and longing for simpler times. The image serves as a poignant reminder of how our landscapes change with passing years while still retaining their timeless appeal. As we admire this remarkable photograph, let us appreciate its historical significance and celebrate the enduring spirit of places like the Cart and Horses that have left an indelible mark on our collective memory.
