EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the quaint village of Burwash in 1907. The image, part of the John Fletcher Collection titled "Wanderings in Sussex" offers a glimpse into the street view of this idyllic English countryside settlement. Preserved by the West Sussex Record Office, this remarkable piece captures a moment frozen in history. As we peer into the photograph, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carriages and bicycles were the primary modes of transportation. The streets are lined with charming cottages adorned with thatched roofs and colorful flower gardens. A sense of tranquility permeates through every corner as villagers go about their daily routines. The composition is beautifully framed, showcasing both architectural details and natural surroundings. One can almost hear the distant sounds of horses' hooves on cobblestone streets and catch a whiff of freshly baked bread from nearby bakeries. This print serves as a valuable historical artifact, offering invaluable insights into life over a century ago. It allows us to reflect upon how much has changed while appreciating what has remained constant throughout time – community spirit and picturesque landscapes that define rural England. Thanks to initiatives like those undertaken by West Sussex County Council's Photographic Collection, these visual treasures continue to be preserved for future generations to explore and cherish.
