EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1960s, taken by David Lewis Hodgson for Mary Evans Picture Library, we witness the timeless charm of a horse-drawn float making its way through the bustling streets of Eastbourne, Sussex during a vibrant carnival procession. The float, led by the experienced handler Jim Wicking, is adorned with intricate decorations and colorful designs, adding to the festive atmosphere. The image transports us back in time, as we observe the horse and carts navigating the winding roads and pavements of Eastbourne. The buildings in the background, with their distinctive architectural features, provide a sense of place and context. The men in traditional smocks and the horses, wearing blinkers to keep them focused, complete the scene, which seems to have been frozen in time. The horse-drawn float was a common sight during carnivals and festive events in the 1960s, and this photograph beautifully captures the essence of that era. The horses, strong and proud, pull the float with an air of grace and dignity, while Jim Wicking expertly guides them through the crowd. The energy and excitement of the event are palpable, as people line the streets to catch a glimpse of the passing floats and enjoy the festivities. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and traditions of Eastbourne and Sussex, and serves as a reminder of the simpler, more community-focused events that once defined our past. It is a treasure trove of nostalgia and a celebration of the enduring bond between humans and horses.
