EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative early 20th century photograph captures the hustle and bustle of activity at Aston Ferry, near Henley-on-Thames. The River Thames serves as a vital artery for the transportation of livestock, with a diverse range of animals making their way across the water. In the foreground, horses and riders wait patiently for their turn to board, their reflections shimmering in the tranquil river. A dog barks excitedly, perhaps anticipating the journey ahead. Further back, a herd of oxen wade through the water, their powerful forms creating ripples as they make their way to the other side. The scene is one of industry and movement, yet there is a sense of calm and order as the ferrymen skillfully guide their vessels, ensuring the safe passage of their animal cargo. The site of Aston Ferry can still be clearly identified to this day, and this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the rural past of Oxfordshire. Livestock transport across the River Thames was a common sight in the early 20th century, and this image captures the essence of a bygone era. The historical significance of this photograph lies not only in the transport of livestock, but also in the human connection to the land and the natural world. The simple act of crossing the river becomes a journey of discovery, as we are transported back in time to a moment of rural life that continues to resonate with us today.
