EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Ploughing with horses, with tractor" takes us back to the year 1931. The George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office has preserved this remarkable piece of history that showcases the timeless beauty of farming in the countryside. In this nostalgic scene, a hardworking farmer can be seen guiding his majestic shire horses as they plough through vast fields. The strength and grace of these magnificent creatures are evident as they pull the heavy wooden plough behind them. Their synchronized movements create a mesmerizing sight, reminding us of simpler times when horsepower was truly measured by these noble animals. Yet amidst tradition, progress is also visible in this image. Standing proudly alongside the horses is an old tractor - a symbol of modernization making its way into rural life during that era. This juxtaposition between traditional methods and emerging technology tells a story of adaptation and evolution within agriculture. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to an era where hard work on the land was essential for survival. It serves as a reminder of our deep connection to nature and how farmers have played an integral role in shaping our landscapes throughout history. The West Sussex County Council's dedication to preserving such valuable records allows us to appreciate and learn from our past while cherishing the enduring spirit of those who worked tirelessly on these fertile lands so many years ago.
