Magic Lantern Slide: Lee Moor -- Clay Pit

This slide was made by Dr William Bolderston who was described as a ‘Modern Language Master’ on the 1911 census. He lived in Exeter where he was a member of the Royal Albert Memorial College Field Club, and he travelled around Europe where he took photographs and made them into magic lantern slides like this. This slide is from a group of images of local scenes in Devon.
