More about this scene

This lovely pastoral scene on the Nonsuch Park estate demonstrates that although the internal combustion engine was making rapid progress in the years following the First World War, most farming communities still relied on natural horsepower. This nutrient-rich harvest would provide winter fodder for these hard-working draught animals and others in the months ahead.

I am not old enough to go back to 1925 but going back to an eleven year old I can remember Nonsuch Park being cropped during the war with cereals. We were able to walk through the park to the mansion & gardens & the only area you were able to have football etc.. was the piece by the entrance from the London (nr Sparrow Farm) Road.
