John Scarrott and Sons Funfair

John Scarrott and sons is a proud member of the showmans guild, keeping decades of family traditions As a youngster, John became fascinated by boxing.

John Scarrott’s travelling funfair has become a regular sight across Northamptonshire during the last three decades and is at Sixfields in Northampton until Sunday. But its roots can be traced back to South Wales where the present proprietor’s great grandfather ran a boxing booth . . . HE may never have been taught to read or write but that didn’t stop the first John Scarrott from becoming a succe

ss launching promising boxers on to fame and fortune on the professional circuit. Born in Newport, the son of a travelling showman, John recalled his long career taking his boxing booth around the mining valleys in the 19th century in Fifty Years Of Boxing In South Wales. His story was serialised in the South Wales Echo and Express in 1936, when he was 69, and he was described as, ‘one of the best-known showmen in the country.’
In his time he saw bare knuckle and glove fighters and some of the most famous boxers in the history of the roped square. John began fighting in other showmen’s booths before starting a booth of his own at the tender age of 21. His wife, Priscilla, wasn’t happy about the idea but was soon won over. He saw his first bare knuckle fight before he was 10 years old and when he couldn’t afford the 3d to get into one booth he sneaked in under the canvas. When he was fighting, the opponents that used to scare him most were mountain fighters, the name given to miners who were bare knuckle fighters.
“They used to come to the fairgrounds from the collieries with their gangs with them, most of ’em half drunk and the very sight of them was enough to freeze the heart of a bull terrier,” he said. "If they heard that there was a well-known champion in a boxing booth at a particular fair they’d walk 50 miles to have a go at him. And they’d often bring their crowd with them. Very often when you were boxing one of them and you were backing before his punches watching out for a chance to get in the K.O., you’d get a punch from behind from one of his pals.”

John would take his boxing booth around some of the roughest areas in the valleys at that time.In the late 1800s there was a riot in the booth over a shilling which was given in a collection for one of the fighters and then taken out by somebody else.“Before you could say Jack Robinson everybody was fighting through and through and my booth was on the floor.“Men were hitting other men and not knowing who they were hitting or why,” he said. John said the most remarkable bare knuckle fight he ever saw was in 1876 when he was a boy and took place between two rival booth proprietors, Welsh champion William Samuels and a Scottish man who was knocked out but went on to fight another 25 or 26 rounds when he was revived. Swansea-born Samuels, who John believed was the greatest fighter of his time in the country, was also a weightlifter and an acrobat.His wife also got in the act, giving displays of weight lifting, lifting two 56lb weights with her hair. She would also allow her husband to break large stone on her chest with a sledgehammer. In those politically incorrect days, John and the boxers from his booth befriended a young man who was very small but muscular. He started off singing, dancing and playing the mouth organ for the crowd but eventually, because he looked Japanese, they painted him yellow, shaved off his hair except for a lock on top of his head and called him Yuko Sako, the Japanese strangler. He became a good boxer and eventually John was able to offer a pound to any man his size that would fight him for three rounds.On another occasion, one of the fighters Arthur Butcher punched a challenger over the ropes and out of the tent, leaving a big hole in the canvas. Boxers to come out of John Scarrott’s booth included Jim Driscoll, who went on to become feather-weight champion of Great Britain, Tom Thomas, the son of a Rhondda farmer who became middle-weight champion of Great Britain, Fred Welsh, light-weight champion of Great Britain and the world and Percy Jones, who won the British fly-weight title in 1914. Jimmy Wilde, who became fly-weight champion of the world despite being just 5ft 21/2ins tall and weighing around 7st in his prime, started his boxing career in John’s booth when he was a teenager, But his size was deceptive and one night he knocked out 23 men, of all shapes and sizes, in just four hours. As well as boxers, John once employed an Italian strongman called Montano, who used to do remarkable weightlifting feats. He would lift a 186lb dumb-bell in one hand and would offer a member of the audience 5 to do the same. He was also a wrestler, but his biggest ever challenge was to have a cannon lifted on to his shoulders and fired. John Scarrott also raised thousands of pounds for charity, on one occasion holding a benefit night for the widow and children of a man killed in a coal pit and another fund raising money for soldiers coming home from the First World War.

As in the First World War many showmen enlisted in the forces including the President of the Guild Charles Thurston who joined the RAF and became Flight Lieutenant and Jimmy Chipperfield who became a fighter pilot. In the History of the Showmen’s Guild, 1939 –1948, Thomas Murphy estimates that over 1,000 showpeople joined the Forces with many more serving as Bevan Boys in factories, mines and other essential war services. Billy Peak was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal and William Meakin the Military Medal for bravery in the Middle East, both two of the highest awards that could be awarded for bravery in combat. As in the Great War, the World’s Fair newspaper carried a weekly photograph and report of the showmen who were fighting for King and Country,despite the paper rationing, which resulted in the paper being reduced to thirty two pages.

When Oxford St Giles Fair was suspended due to the start of the Second World War, the fairground community as a whole could be forgiven for thinking that their business would be devastated as it had been during the Great War. However, the Second World War was effectively the means by which the Showmen's Guild extended its authority over the travelling showpeople as a whole by fighting for the continuation of fairs and the needs of its members during this period.

Mindful of the near collapse of the industry during the First World War, when most fairs were suspended and showland society lost over 70 percent of its manpower, the Guild was better prepared and during the late 1930s it maintained close links with the Ministries of Supply, Agriculture and Fisheries and Transport.

When a state of hostilities was declared in September 1939 the Guild immediately contacted the Government to lobby the continuation of the travelling fairs. Overall, fairgrounds were allowed to continue under blackout conditions with the exception of some Charter events such as Hull Fair, which was requisitioned for the war effort.

The Stay-at-Home holidays initiative, implemented by the Government in 1942, enabled the showmen to build up power, support and economic strength on a national and regional level. Showpeople received special "Traveller's Ration Cards" and "Showmen's Vehicle Fuel Ration Cards" which they could use throughout the country. Not only were they encouraged to open fairs in the city centres and parkland, but some local authorities actually paid the showmen or waived the rent for the wartime period.

Blackout fairs sprung up throughout the country, Silcock’s Amusements opened on Warrington Market throughout the war years and Newcastle held a fair in the Town Moor Recreation Park for seven weeks. In Scotland, Glasgow Green was made available for fairs for the first time in the century and parks throughout London including Clapham Common and Victoria Park were the venues for very successful events. In his autobiography John Ling recalls that:

Morale was an important issue for the Government during the War. Normal holidays were impossible so in an attempt to fill the gap, the Government devised the idea of Holidays at Home. Showmen were granted concession to open fairs in many of the big towns and cities, usually in public parks. In Sheffield these were organised by the Telegraph and Star, who gave them publicity in their newspapers. We presented a fun fair at these events, and extra attractions were offered.’

Despite the fear of bombing raids, the fairs continued to operate and became so successful for the showmen that John Ling’s family brought several old rides out of storage and acquired additional rides from other showmen. These and other events proved to be in high demand throughout the United Kingdom and continued in 1943 with Liverpool and Birmingham throwing open its parks for the showpeople. Nottingham held a Summer Goose fair and the Guild campaigned for special rations for prizes.

Travelling showpeople also aided the war effort in other ways including the purchase of a Spitfire, which was named ‘The Fun of the Fair’. On 24 August 1940, the following appeal was published in The World’s Fair by the Showmen’s Guild of Great Britain, calling on its members to raise the funds required to purchase a Spitfire for the nation:

‘Other industries have raised funds to give fighter aircraft to the R.A.F. We, the travelling showmen, must do the same. Between £5,000 and £6,000 is necessary to provide a Spitfire or Hurricane fighter and many of our members have expressed the wish that they want to contribute to such a fund and we agree with them.’

Spitfire 'The Fun of the Fair' donated to the Nation by the Showmen's Guild of Great Britain, 1945
Spitfire 'The Fun of the Fair' donated to the Nation by the Showmen's Guild of Great Britain, 1945

Thomas Murphy, the General Secretary continues:

‘We have received reasonable consideration form the Government and local authorities, and have been encouraged to run our business. We should be grateful, let us show the country and the fighting services that we are. Let us show it in this practical way. Let Showland’s aircraft be worthy of the brave men who fly it in the cause of Justice and at the same time for our protection ... Today is the day of duty and sacrifice. Others are doing this on our behalf. Let us therefore, do our bit and know that when victory comes, although we are not in the front line of defence we contributed our mite in providing OUR LADS with the best weapons possible.’

Action from the members was swift and within ten days over £1,500 had been donated by individual members, regional sections and organisations associated with showland such as the World’s Fair. Committee meetings were organised throughout the country and by September 14th over £3,000 had been realised. The campaign to raise the necessary funds continued throughout September and October and the World’s Fair published a weekly list of individual donations. By the start of 1941 and during the Annual General Meeting of Members the target figure of £5,000 was realised and the remainder of the balance was sent to the Ministry of Aircraft Productions. In a letter dated the 9th of February Lord Beaverbrook’s personal secretary wrote the following words of praise and thanks:

‘The travelling showmen have made a most valuable contribution to the air strength of the country. Their aircraft which we will be glad to name “The Fun of the Fair will shortly join the squadrons, ready to play its part in ridding our skies of the menace of the Luftwaffe.’

The Spitfire purchased by the Showmen’s Guild was built by Supermarine Aviation Vickers Ltd and was part of a lot of 450 Spitfires. According to the research carried out by Robert Bailey and Henry Farr of the London and Home Counties Section the Fun of the Fair was a F. Mark One built as a Mark VB type 331 around April 1941. It was fitted with a Rolls Royce Merlin RM45 engine, Hispano Cannons of 20mm and 303 Browning machine guns. Its maximum performance speed was 370 miles per hour at 25,000 ft. The first flight was a general purpose test flight after which the aircraft was named “The Fun of the Fair”. After it was modified for combat it was allocated to the 306 Polish Squadron, which formed part of the Allied Squadrons under the control of the Royal Air Force. It then became part of the 315 Squadron in 1942.

In recognition of the fundraising activities of the Guild and its members during 1941, the Ministry of Aircraft sent to the Central Office a steel plaque with the following inscription:

‘IN THE HOUR OF PERIL THE SHOWMEN’S GUILD OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND EARNED THE GRATITUDE OF THE BRITISH NATIONS SUSTAINING THE VALOUR OF THE ROYAL AIR FORCE AND FORTIFYING THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM BY THE GIFT OF A SPITFIRE AIRCRAFT. THEY SHALL MOUNT UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES.’

From the Second World War onwards the Showmen's Guild went from strength to strength, updating its rules but keeping to the original principles of its founding fathers. Membership increased rapidly and by the end of the conflict membership of the Guild was restricted to sons and daughters of existing Guild members.

On a financial basis, the fairground community as a whole enjoyed an economic bonanza as fairs were welcomed back into parks and city centres. Fairs were held for the ending of hostilities and Charter fairs, which had remained closed during the war years, were bigger and better than ever. Hull Fair was again held on Walton Street and although it would be a number of years before it retained its pre-war glory, the old fair was a popular sight again in the city. As Thomas Murphy concluded the fairs:

‘Brought light, colour, pageantry, gaiety and laughter into a very sombre world and when the final reckoning is made we will have no cause to belittle our efforts, or to feel ashamed of the part we played.’

After the War

The President of the Showmen’s Guild for the majority of the war years was Mr C.W.R Thurston who served until 1947 when he was succeeded by William Lennards.

Although the number of fairs and amount of equipment had increased dramatically during the war years, these were not necessarily available when hostilities had ceased. Rides were retired, or old ones redecorated to bring the fairground up to date. The 1948 Hoppings in Newcastle was patronised by Collin’s Looping the Loop, Toogood’s new look Moon Rocket and John Murphy’s new Waltzer. Cambridge continued the pattern of mixing old and new as concerted attempts were made by the Guild and the Council to regain the pre-war standards. A Foster steam engine, which would have once been a familiar sight on the fair, was seen as a curiosity by the World’s Fair reporter, who was struck by the attention it attracted. Nottingham Goose Fair opened with forty large riding machines in attendance as well as the traditional shows. Ted Cooper commentating in the World’s Fair remarked on the over continuing popularity of the old time rides such as the scenic railway, the galloping horses and the steam yachts. Waltzers, Ark’s, Dodgems and the Moon Rocket were the most popular rides at the fair with Eddie Monte’s Wall of Death still proving to be a favoured attraction. This pattern continued at Hull Fair where the firm of Pat Collin’s brought their famous Scenic Dragons out of retirement and opened next to rides of a more modern generation.

The 1940s were brought to a close on a tide of prosperity and strength in unity. The Guild and the showpeople had weathered a most severe test and had come out of the dark days of the war with increased prosperity and prestige. Showmen purchased ex-army vehicles and converted them for use on the fair and the once essential steam traction engine was replaced by diesel powered Scammels and Diamond T’s. The dawn of the Rock and Roll Age was upon them where new rides, music and changes in popular culture would once again be reflected on the travelling fairs.

WORLD FUNFAIR MONTH celebrates everything to do with the fairground industry and Showman community. WFFM is something that grows and develops each year
Now in its 3rd year we wanted to build on what we’ve done in the past. For this year WFFM showcases further some of the fairs taking place throughout September. For 2023 we have produced certificates which are given by the Showmen to the local authorities and organisations who host the fairs. Celebrating the association between the towns and city’s linked to the fairgrounds and the relationship with the Showmen family’s who attend. We have also created heritage boards that highlight some of the key aspects of the history of these fairs. Something that hopefully can be used to continue to promote the fair each year.
