Barnaby Sykes / Pie Maker

Detail of pie stall in the nostalgic Victorian area of the Winter Wonderland 2014 fair. It's said that the eponymous Barnaby Sykes was an C18th Kentish labourer who had a side-line in poaching and pie-making. He fled to America to avoid the authorities and was last recorded in 1822 as a fur trapper. Hyde Park, City of Westminster, London.
