EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Snow scene, Upperton Way - February 1940" takes us back in time to a winter wonderland in West Sussex. The image, part of the George Garland Collection at the West Sussex Record Office, beautifully captures the essence of a cold and picturesque February day. As we gaze upon this black and white snapshot, our eyes are immediately drawn to the pristine white blanket covering every inch of Upperton Way. The lane appears untouched by human presence as it winds its way through nature's icy masterpiece. The snow-laden trees gracefully frame the scene, their branches delicately adorned with frosty crystals. The photograph transports us to a simpler era when winters were harsh yet enchanting. It evokes feelings of nostalgia for those who remember such scenes from their own past or stories passed down through generations. We can almost feel the chill in the air and hear the crunch of footsteps on freshly fallen snow. In an age where technology dominates our lives, this print reminds us to appreciate nature's beauty even during challenging times. It serves as a reminder that despite freezing temperatures and treacherous conditions, there is still magic to be found in these wintry landscapes. This remarkable image from West Sussex County Council's archives allows us to glimpse into history and marvel at how much has changed while acknowledging that some things remain timeless – like the serene allure of a snowy lane on a cold winter's day.
