EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by Alfred Newton and Sons in 1903, captures the dedication and hard work of Mr. Smith and his horse team in the woodlands of Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire. The team is seen meticulously hauling and carrying bundles of brushwood from a steep, wooded slope, a task that would have been essential for the management and maintenance of the forest. The image offers a glimpse into the past, when horse power was a primary means of transportation and labor in forestry work. The horses, with their powerful muscles and sure-footedness, were an indispensable asset in navigating the rugged terrain and transporting heavy loads. The team's focus and determination are evident as they work in unison to complete their task. The woodland setting, with its lush greenery and dappled sunlight filtering through the trees, adds to the idyllic scene. This photograph is a testament to the importance of forestry work in maintaining the health and vitality of woodlands, as well as the crucial role that horses played in this industry. It also serves as a reminder of the physical labor and dedication required to manage and care for forests, a tradition that continues to this day.
