EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the picturesque Lurgashall Village Green in November 1946. The focal point of this enchanting scene is a majestic, towering tree that stands proudly at the center, surrounded by a circular iron seat embracing its trunk. This charming spot on the village green invites locals and visitors alike to pause, relax, and appreciate nature's beauty. In the background, an array of houses showcases the unique architectural styles prevalent in rural West Sussex during that era. Half-timbered cottages with their distinctive catslide roofs add character to this idyllic setting. Each chimney gently releases plumes of smoke into the crisp autumn air, hinting at cozy fires within. The vastness of the surrounding fields adds a sense of tranquility to this snapshot frozen in time. It's as if time itself has stood still for just a moment so we can fully absorb the serenity and simplicity of life in Lurgashall Village. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history and allows us to reflect on how much has changed over decades gone by. It serves as a reminder of our connection to nature and community—a testament to simpler times when people found solace under ancient trees while enjoying each other's company
