Trains At Cider Works - A Glimpse into the Lively World of Devon's Apple Industry
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to October 1908, capturing a bustling scene at Henley and Sons cider works in Newton Abbot, Devon. The Great Western Railway (GWR) plays a vital role in this snapshot of history as apple carts and goods trains fill the pound. The image showcases an array of horse-drawn carts and wagons, laden with crates brimming with ripe apples destined for cider production. Men, dressed in their work attire, can be seen engaged in various tasks amidst the organized chaos. Their presence adds depth to the photograph, emphasizing the human effort behind this thriving industry. The atmosphere is vibrant as workers go about their duties under the bright daylight. The railroad car stands tall against the backdrop of lush countryside scenery - a testament to progress intertwining with nature's beauty. This historic moment frozen in time encapsulates not only the significance of transportation but also highlights how communities relied on one another for economic prosperity. It serves as a reminder that industries such as these were built upon collaboration and hard work. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Topical Press Agency's collection, we are transported back over a century ago when horses pulled carts laden with apples through picturesque landscapes. This evocative image invites us to appreciate both our past heritage and those who labored tirelessly within it.
