EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1907, where we find ourselves standing in the middle of a quaint street in Rye. Our gaze is immediately drawn towards the magnificent Landgate, which stands proudly at the end of the road. The Landgate's iconic clock serves as a reminder that time never stops ticking, even amidst this picturesque scene. As we explore further, our eyes wander to both sides of the street, where charming houses line our path. These historic buildings exude character and tell stories of lives lived long ago. They stand as witnesses to the passage of time and serve as a testament to Rye's rich architectural heritage. The photographer behind this remarkable image is John Fletcher, whose collection titled "Wanderings in Sussex" offers glimpses into forgotten moments frozen in time. This particular photograph captures not only the beauty of Rye but also showcases Fletcher's keen eye for detail and composition. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this print allows us to immerse ourselves in history and appreciate how much has changed since 1907 while marveling at what remains unchanged. It serves as a visual treasure trove for those who seek nostalgia or wish to study and preserve our collective past
