EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque countryside of West Sussex in 1893. The blacksmith's house at Fittleworth stands proudly, its side view revealing a glimpse into a bygone era. As we gaze upon this vintage image, we are transported to a simpler time when life revolved around close-knit communities and traditional industries. In the foreground of the photograph, a man and young girl stand on the road beside the garden wall. Their presence adds depth and human connection to this rural scene, reminding us that behind every historic building lies stories of ordinary people living their lives amidst these idyllic surroundings. The charm of this image is further enhanced by its nostalgic quality. The sepia tones evoke feelings of warmth and sentimentality as we immerse ourselves in the beauty of West Sussex's countryside heritage. It serves as a reminder that progress has transformed our landscapes over time but also highlights the importance of preserving our cultural roots. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this remarkable piece offers an invaluable glimpse into history. It captures not only an architectural gem but also reflects an entire industry that once thrived in this region - blacksmithing. As we admire this snapshot from yesteryear, let us appreciate both the craftsmanship behind capturing such moments and cherish our collective past for generations to come.
