London Postcard: Bostal Heath Blackberrying Children Brambles 1905 XT5056

This charming colour view depicts a group of local children gathered amongst dense bramble bushes while blackberrying at Bostal Heath. The landscape captures the rural, uncultivated character of the common land in south-east London with mature woodland trees framing an open grassy clearing. The scene highlights a traditional seasonal country pastime enjoyed by families during the Edwardian era before the surrounding areas became heavily suburbanised.

This is a standard size postcard which was published by "Molyneux" Series. The postcard was made in the United Kingdom. This postcard was posted in 1905 to Mrs Gealer, 34 Dollar Street, Cirencester, Gloucestershire.
