EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling High Street of Worthing in the late 19th century. The year is approximately 1885, and as we gaze upon this snapshot, we are transported into a world filled with Victorian charm and architectural splendor. Looking north from our vantage point, we can see the entrance to Ann Street on the left side of the frame. It serves as a reminder of how these streets were once pathways for pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages alike. The middle ground reveals an intriguing mix of shops and houses that lined this vibrant thoroughfare. One particular shop catches our attention - "Potter, Bailey & Co. grocers" proudly occupies the corner on the northern end. Its presence adds a touch of commercial liveliness to this historic scene, inviting locals and visitors alike to explore its wares. The photograph itself is part of the Walter Gardiner Photography Collection held by West Sussex County Council's Library Service Photograph and Picture Collections. Preserved meticulously over time, it allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also provides valuable insights into everyday life during this era. As we delve deeper into this image, let us marvel at how architecture intertwines with history while imagining ourselves strolling along those very streets where countless stories unfolded more than a century ago.
