Harvest

How times have changed. Eleven men working to bring in the harvest, now there might be two. The men may have been baling straw or threshing. The man with his arm around the small boy is Charles Mason of 32 Pitchers Hill, Wickhamford. The small boy may be his son Harry. Just behind them can be see the wheel and drive belt powering the machine.

The picture belonged to Fred Mason. We are grateful to his daughter Val Harman who lent it to us.
