EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming countryside of West Sussex in September 1949. The Southdown Sheep Show is in full swing, showcasing three magnificent sheep alongside their skilled handler. These adorable creatures steal the spotlight with their pristine white coats and endearing faces, embodying all that is cute about rural life. The image captures a lad dressed smartly for the occasion, his presence adding an authentic touch to this snapshot of agricultural heritage. In the background, a sturdy lorry stands as a testament to the hard work and dedication required to transport these prized animals from one showground to another. The wool on display speaks volumes about both tradition and innovation within the industry during this era. It serves as a reminder of how vital sheep farming was for communities like West Sussex, providing not only warm clothing but also economic sustenance. Surrounded by flint cottages that dot the landscape, this photograph encapsulates a simpler time when rural life thrived harmoniously with nature's beauty. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, it offers viewers an opportunity to step into history and appreciate our rich agricultural heritage
