EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time - Graffham's Whit Monday open air boxing match in May 1934. The image, taken by the talented photographer George Garland, showcases the raw energy and excitement of this rural sporting event held in the picturesque countryside of West Sussex. In this snapshot from history, we see two determined boxers locked in combat within a makeshift ring surrounded by enthusiastic onlookers. Their muscles tense with anticipation as they exchange blows under the watchful eyes of spectators who have gathered to witness this thrilling spectacle. The charm of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of a local sporting event but also in its ability to transport us back to an era long gone. It offers a glimpse into a simpler time when communities would come together to celebrate traditions such as Whit Monday, creating memories that would be cherished for years to come. Preserved within the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this remarkable print serves as a testament to both George Garland's skill behind the lens and his dedication to documenting moments that might otherwise fade into obscurity. As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded of the rich heritage embedded within our county's past and how sport has always played an integral role in bringing people together across generations.
