EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Hulton Archive, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of respite during an exhilarating journey. Supporters of the Blackpool motor races, hailing all the way from London, find themselves momentarily halted at the Cock Hotel in Stratford. The Serpollet omnibus they travel in stands proudly by their side, its vintage charm adding to the allure of this snapshot. The scene is bustling with activity as weary travelers take advantage of this pit stop to refuel both their bodies and spirits. A group of dapper gentlemen can be seen conversing near the bus, perhaps sharing stories and excitement about what lies ahead on their adventure-filled road trip through Europe's picturesque landscapes. Their youthful energy is palpable as they eagerly anticipate reaching their destination. The Cock Hotel itself serves as a welcoming oasis amidst this whirlwind journey. Its inviting facade adorned with signs beckons passersby to indulge in some much-needed refreshments before continuing on their way. It becomes evident that these moments spent together - savoring good food and company - are just as cherished as the thrill of racing towards Blackpool. This remarkable photograph captures not only a historical moment but also embodies the spirit of travel and exploration that has captivated generations throughout Britain and beyond. As we gaze upon it today, we cannot help but feel inspired by these brave adventurers who embarked on such daring escapades long ago – reminding us that every journey holds within it countless tales waiting to be discovered.
