When first posted on the Archive the question was: “Wonder what has brought all these people out int the square?” Finley Butler advised: “It says in a book of my grandmothers called ‘Carlin How – Times Past ‘ that this image is of ”Volunteers leaving for Boer war, 1900”. Derick Pearson advised it was part of a disc compilation of images he produced in 1983 for a Village Arts initiative led by Doff Pollard in the Jubilee Hall. Further researches aided by Carlin How Community Centre has allowed an improved image to be presented.
