EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in history - the grand opening of Pulborough Waterworks in 1932. The image showcases an array of distinguished individuals, each playing a significant role in this landmark event. Standing tall amidst the crowd is a dignified lord, exuding authority and prestige. His presence commands attention as he symbolizes the importance of this achievement for the community. Beside him stands a vicar, wearing his signature trilby hat, representing the spiritual significance associated with water as a life-giving force. The reverend's solemn expression suggests his deep appreciation for this milestone and its potential impact on the lives of those he serves. The photograph provides us with a glimpse into an era long gone - the 1930s - characterized by elegance and sophistication. It transports us back to a time when such events were celebrated with great pomp and circumstance. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this historical artifact offers valuable insights into our local heritage. While it refrains from mentioning any commercial use or specific company involved, it reminds us that progress is often achieved through collective efforts driven by visionaries who prioritize public welfare above all else. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from West Sussex County Council archives, we are reminded of how far we have come since that momentous day in 1932 when Pulborough Waterworks opened its doors to provide clean water to countless homes and businesses alike.
