Title: Warehorne
Post by: Jagoman on Thursday 24 August 17 22:11 BST (UK)

Hi All,

Can anybody help with the date of this photo from Warehorne looks like a Sunday School photo with all their hats.

Many thanks

1905 - 1910. Possibly a year or two earlier but certainly no later.

Wonderful hats the girls are wearing aren't they!     ;D

Thanks Jim1 for the confirmation of dates. The dress does indicate that sort of period.

It looks like the Gentleman on the far right has very large hands and a possible sun tan.

Many thanks Peter for a fantastic wash and wax.  It makes it a lot clearer.

Hello Jagoman.
I have only just discovered this post, so am late into the fray. I have attached a photo of the property showing it as it now looks. The Mummery family were living there in the early 1900s.
I don’t know if you are familiar with Warehorne parish, but just to the left of this property is the Old Chapel, so it might well be a Sunday School group. Also, the Old Schoolhouse is only a couple of hundred yards away, but one would expect to see more children if there was a connection with the school.
Hope this is of use.
