This procession of old traction engines
and wagons is setting out from Newbridge
in celebration of the relief of Mafeking
in the Boer War on 23rd May 1900. The
placard on the first engine reads 'God
Bless Queen and Empire'. in the background
are the lime kilns and railway trucks
loaded with lime stone. In 1890 the Parish
Church had a mission hall to serve the
community of Newbridge. Picture By: Dodds,
Pickering.
