Antrim Baskets Lough Neagh Potato Stack Made
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of rural life in County Antrim, Northern Ireland during the early 1900s. The scene at Gawleys Gate, on the shores of Lough Neagh, presents a man in quiet contemplation as he stands before a towering stack of potato baskets. The baskets, filled to the brim with freshly harvested potatoes, are a testament to the hard work and dedication of the local farmers. The serene setting, with the gentle undulations of the land and the distant reflection of the sun on the water, adds to the sense of tranquility and abundance. The man's simple attire and the traditional woven baskets further emphasize the connection to the land and the traditional methods of farming that were once commonplace in this region. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the rhythms of nature and the labor of the land shaped the daily lives of those who lived and worked around Lough Neagh.
