EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from May 1938, we are transported back in time to witness a heartwarming scene of rural life. The image features a young girl diligently milking a cow at Pythingdean, as captured by the talented photographer George Garland. The girl's serene expression reveals her familiarity with the task at hand, showcasing her expertise as a milkmaid. With utmost care and precision, she sits on a sturdy milking stool beside the gentle creature, engrossed in her duties. A traditional pail rests beneath the udder, ready to collect the precious liquid that sustains both farm and family. This snapshot offers us an intimate glimpse into the daily routine of dairy farming during simpler times. The rustic charm of the milking parlour is evident in its humble surroundings - weathered wooden walls adorned with tools of trade hanging neatly on hooks. As we admire this photograph preserved by West Sussex County Council's invaluable collection at their Record Office (Ref. No N16831), it serves as a poignant reminder of our agricultural heritage and how it shaped communities for generations. Let this evocative image transport you back to an era where hard work intertwined seamlessly with nature's bounty; where young hands learned age-old skills passed down through time. It is through such glimpses into history that we can appreciate how far we have come while cherishing those who came before us - forever etched within these timeless frames.
