EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a simpler time in Hillgrove, West Sussex, during the crisp autumn days of November 1933. The image, part of the George Garland Collection housed at the West Sussex Record Office, showcases a traditional cider press nestled in a rural setting. The scene is brimming with nostalgic charm as men diligently work together to produce this beloved beverage. Clad in their school uniforms and caps, young boys eagerly join in on the action under the watchful eye of their elders. A rustic shed serves as the backdrop for this laborious task, while a wheelbarrow stands ready to transport freshly picked apples. Every element within this snapshot tells its own story: from barrels filled with ripe fruit waiting to be pressed into juice, to baskets overflowing with apples awaiting their turn. Sacks are strewn about haphazardly as if forgotten momentarily amidst all the excitement. This photograph captures not only an essential aspect of rural life but also evokes feelings of camaraderie and hard work that defined communities like Hillgrove during this era. It transports us back to a time when simple pleasures were cherished and traditions held steadfast. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved by West Sussex County Council's archives, we cannot help but feel connected to those who came before us - reminding us that even today's modern world still has much to learn from our past.
