Additional notes:

In his youth Gascoigne–Simpson was a keen Nadgerer, and participated in both disciplines up to county level. However in 1863 an injury sustained against the ’Birmingham Boilers’ curtailed a promising career.


Despite being unable to participate, he continued to document Nadgerering, even after the practice was outlawed and consequently forced underground by an act of Parliament in 1872.

Fans of both Spot and Goose Nadgering will be glad to hear there are a number of as yet un-restored plates of Nadgering in the collection, including the infamous ‘Grantham Grobbellers’ team of 1867. 

We hope to be able to exhibit these in the near future. From the ‘Bumforth Manor Collection’, the recently rediscovered archive of photographic work by the Victorian eccentric and photographic pioneer, Samuel Heracles Gascoigne-Simpson.
