EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the quaint village of Southwater in 1910. The focal point is an enchanting old cottage, exuding charm and character with its thatched roof and rustic wooden beams. Nestled amidst a picturesque countryside backdrop, this humble abode stands as a testament to simpler times. What catches the eye is the newer extension on the left-hand end of the cottage, seamlessly blending modernity with tradition. This addition showcases how architecture evolves over time while still preserving the essence of its surroundings. It serves as a reminder that progress can harmoniously coexist with history. The composition of this photograph captures not only the physical beauty but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for bygone eras. One can almost imagine smoke billowing from chimneys, hear laughter echoing through open windows, and feel warmth emanating from within these walls. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this image offers a glimpse into our heritage and allows us to appreciate how life has evolved throughout generations. It serves as a valuable resource for historians and enthusiasts alike who seek to understand our past. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, let us reflect on the stories it holds - tales of hardworking families seeking solace in their cozy cottages amidst nature's embrace. May it inspire gratitude for those who came before us and remind us to cherish our own homes today.
