EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Offham Church near Lewes, Sussex, on a serene summer day in 1948. The image showcases a narrow footpath leading towards the magnificent church of St Peters Offham. Standing tall and proud, the church's spire dominates the skyline, reaching towards the heavens with an air of religious reverence. The architectural details are truly remarkable. This early decorated building is a testament to exquisite craftsmanship and design. Constructed with a harmonious blend of flint and sandstone, every stone seems to tell a story from centuries past. The tower stands as a sturdy guardian, overlooking its surroundings with unwavering strength. The shingles adorning the roof add another layer of charm to this picturesque scene. Their weathered appearance hints at years gone by while adding character to this sacred place. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this photograph invites us into history itself. It allows us to witness firsthand how time has shaped our landscapes and communities. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but feel connected to those who have walked these paths before us – seeking solace or celebrating life's milestones within these hallowed walls. Let this photograph serve as a reminder that even amidst change and progress, there are places like Offham Church that stand proudly as symbols of tradition and faith for generations yet unborn.
