EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Snowy street scene, January 1940" takes us back in time to a winter wonderland on Lombard Street, Petworth. The George Garland Collection at the West Sussex Record Office has preserved this nostalgic snapshot of a bygone era. In the midst of a cold and frosty day, the snow-covered roofs and lanes create an enchanting atmosphere that evokes feelings of warmth and holiday cheer. Chimneys puff out smoke from cozy cottages nestled along the terrace, hinting at families gathered around crackling fireplaces. The snow drifts gracefully along the road, painting a picturesque scene against the backdrop of Petworth Cathedral. This image captures both the beauty and challenges brought about by winter's embrace. As we gaze upon this timeless photograph, it transports us to a simpler time when life moved at a slower pace. It reminds us of cherished memories made during past Christmas seasons as well as invokes curiosity about those who once walked these snowy streets. Thanks to West Sussex County Council's dedication to preserving historical records like this one from their archives, we can appreciate and reflect upon our shared heritage. Let this stunning image serve as a reminder that even amidst cold winters, there is always beauty waiting to be discovered just beyond our doorstep.
