EAW001447 ENGLAND (1946). A hopfield near Den Cottages, Collier Street, 1946

Hi Class 31,



I'm not sure that they are the same sheds; the surrounding fields are a bit different (their contents, that is, if you know what I mean).

I'm pretty sure that these are the sheds in EAW001445. The detail of the sheds is spot-on, and I think the apparent difference in the field contents is just because the angle is different. Details of the orchard, such as the number of rows of trees, their individual sizes, the location of a darker patch of (turfed?) ground etc, match exactly.

I have re-examined this photo and compared it to EAW001445 I have compared the sheds, field boundaries, trees, grass cutting, dark patches, a small wheeled piece of machinery in the orchard. everything matches. I note that Tony D agrees that everything fits. I stand by my original analysis that they are the same location.

I would also consider these sheds to be same. look at the peaked little shed in the middle it can be be seen on the other photo. The feild contents seem the same to me, hops and a young orchard.

Thanks everyone! We'll update the catalogue and post the new data here in due course.
