EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Stoughton, 1907" offers a glimpse into the serene village life of yesteryears. The image captures a picturesque view along a quaint road in Stoughton, West Sussex. On the left side of the road, towering trees stand proudly, their branches reaching towards the sky as if embracing nature's beauty. These majestic sentinels provide shade and add an enchanting touch to the scene. On the right side of this idyllic path lie charming houses that exude warmth and character. Their architecture reflects a bygone era when craftsmanship was cherished and attention to detail paramount. Each house seems to tell its own story, whispering tales of families who once called them home. Intriguingly positioned in the middle of this peaceful setting is a child standing on the road itself. With innocence radiating from their presence, they seem captivated by something unseen beyond our frame—a hidden treasure or perhaps just lost in daydreams. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection (Ref. PH 26116/32), this photograph transports us back over a century ago when life moved at a slower pace and simplicity reigned supreme. As we gaze upon this timeless snapshot from Stoughton's past, we are reminded of how much has changed yet also how some things remain constant—nature's enduring beauty, community spirit nestled within these humble abodes, and children forever finding wonder amidst their surroundings.
