EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1908, where we find ourselves standing in front of a picturesque old farmhouse nestled in the village of Slaugham. The charm and character of this timber-framed dwelling are beautifully enhanced by the lush climbing ivy that adorns its exterior walls, creating an enchanting scene straight out of a storybook. As we gaze upon this timeless image, our eyes are drawn to the farm tools casually leaning against the sturdy stone wall. These simple yet essential implements serve as a reminder of the hard work and dedication required to maintain such a homestead. They stand as silent witnesses to generations past who tirelessly labored on these very grounds, tending to their crops and livestock with unwavering commitment. The photograph is part of John Fletcher's esteemed collection titled "Wanderings in Sussex" which showcases his passion for capturing the essence and beauty of rural life. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, it allows us to glimpse into history and appreciate the rich heritage that surrounds us. With every detail meticulously preserved through time, this print serves as a window into an era long gone but not forgotten. It invites us to reflect on simpler times when nature intertwined seamlessly with human existence, reminding us of our deep-rooted connection with both land and tradition.
