EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to a wintry February in 1948, where the enchanting Duncton Church stands proudly amidst a snowy landscape. The scene depicts a breathtaking view across a vast field, with Holy Trinity Church emerging majestically in the distance. In the foreground, a hedge adorned with delicate snowflakes frames the composition, while a small gate invites our imagination to wander through this rural wonderland. The charm of this image lies not only in its depiction of winter's icy grip but also in its historical significance. The George Garland Collection has preserved this precious moment frozen in time for generations to come. As we gaze upon this snapshot from West Sussex County Council's archives, we are reminded of the enduring beauty and resilience found within these ancient walls. Duncton Church itself is an architectural gem dating back to the 14th century, boasting an elegant spire that pierces through the frosty air. Its bell tolls softly against nature's hushed backdrop, creating an atmosphere both serene and hauntingly beautiful. This photograph encapsulates all that is magical about winters past - tranquil scenes blanketed by pure white snow and timeless structures whispering tales of centuries gone by. It serves as a reminder of our connection to history and how even amidst cold seasons, warmth can be found within these cherished memories captured on film.
