EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of the Steam Packet Tavern, Littlehampton. Transporting us to the early 20th century, this remarkable image showcases not only the charming tavern itself but also offers a glimpse into the lives of five individuals and their loyal canine companion. The tavern stands proudly at the heart of bustling Littlehampton, its sign bearing the name C. Hemsley - a testament to its rich history and local ownership. Its inviting facade exudes warmth and character, beckoning passersby to step inside and experience its cozy atmosphere. But it is not just the building that captivates our attention; it is also those who gather outside. Five figures stand together, each one seemingly lost in conversation or contemplation. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of yesteryear, providing an intriguing insight into daily life during this era. And let's not forget about their faithful four-legged friend! The presence of a dog adds an endearing touch to this snapshot from history, reminding us that even amidst busy streets and bustling establishments, companionship was cherished. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Additional Manuscript Collection under Ref No: AM 507/1/42), this print serves as a valuable piece of local heritage. It invites us to reflect on bygone times while appreciating how places like Steam Packet Tavern have woven themselves into our collective memory.
