EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the vibrant summer of 1930, where the Recreation Ground at Bude was alive with activity and laughter. This print captures a picturesque scene of leisure and sport, as people basked in the glorious sunshine. The air was filled with excitement as tennis enthusiasts engaged in friendly matches on well-maintained courts, while nearby bowls players showcased their skills with precision and grace. As your eyes wander beyond the lively scene, you can't help but admire the stunning backdrop that completes this idyllic picture. Compass Point, affectionately known as 'the pepper pot, ' stands tall alongside the majestic Bude Castle and St. Michael and All Angels Church. These historic landmarks add a touch of grandeur to an already breathtaking view. The river Neet (Strat) flows peacefully in the foreground, gently reflecting its surroundings like a mirror. Its tranquil presence serves as a reminder of nature's beauty amidst all the human activity. This nostalgic image transports us back to an era when holidays were cherished moments spent by coastal towns like Bude. Holidaymakers flocked here seeking relaxation and joyous memories that would last a lifetime
