EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time at The Aldgate Pump in London, a historical landmark that once stood as a vital source of water for the city's residents. Surrounded by a lively group of young, cheeky street types, the venerable pump is a stark contrast to their youthful energy. To the left of the pump, a hand-crank Fire Call Post is marked on the lampost, adding an extra layer of historical significance to the scene. The children, with their curious expressions and playful antics, seem to be oblivious to the importance of the pump and the fire post behind them. The hounds at their feet complete the picture, adding a touch of whimsy to the image. The pump handle, worn from years of use, stands tall and proud, a testament to the resilience of this historical artifact. The Fire Alarm post, with its intricate design and ornate handle, is a reminder of the importance of fire safety in the city's past. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler era when the everyday sights and sounds of the city were a source of wonder and delight.
