EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the rural landscapes of West Sussex in July 1933. The image showcases a hardworking farmer, standing proudly beside his prized pig on Cocking Causeway. As we gaze at this snapshot from history, we are transported to an era where farming was not just a profession but a way of life. The farmer's weathered face tells tales of countless hours spent tending to the land and caring for his livestock. His strong hands bear witness to the physical labor required in nurturing these animals that were vital for sustenance and livelihoods. The pig, standing by his side, represents more than just an animal; it symbolizes self-sufficiency and resilience. Surrounded by rolling hills and lush green fields, this scene evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when communities relied on their own resources. It serves as a reminder of the deep connection between humans and nature that once thrived within these idyllic landscapes. Preserved within the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this print is not merely an artifact but a window into our agricultural heritage. It allows us to reflect upon our roots while appreciating how far we have come in terms of technological advancements and changes in farming practices. As we admire this timeless image, let us honor those who came before us – farmers like him who shaped our countryside with their unwavering dedication and love for the land they called home.
