EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting old world village of Pevensey in Sussex. The focal point is the historical 16th century Mint House, standing proudly on the left side of the frame. This remarkable building was once home to Andrew Borde, Court Physician to King Henry VIII, adding a touch of regal history to this quaint village. As we explore further into the image, we notice a charming street lined with picturesque houses that exude architectural beauty. A vintage car parked by the roadside adds an element of nostalgia, reminding us of a bygone era. In front of one house stands a man accompanied by his loyal dog, capturing a moment frozen in time. The Royal Oak Inn can be spotted towards the end of the street, inviting locals and visitors alike for some well-deserved refreshments. It serves as both a gathering place and witness to countless stories shared over pints throughout its existence. However, amidst this idyllic scene lies an impending threat - news has spread that Eastbourne District rural council plans to allow construction of a large slaughterhouse near Pevensey Castle ruins. This potential disruption looms over this peaceful village like dark clouds on an otherwise sunny day in 1928. This evocative photograph from Between The Wars transports us back in time and reminds us not only of Pevensey's architectural charm but also highlights how progress can sometimes encroach upon cherished heritage sites.
