EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from April 1938, we are transported back to the Petworth Hospital Gymkhana in West Sussex. The image captures a heartfelt moment between a distinguished gentleman and a young dismounted rider near her horse, accompanied by an adorable young boy. The scene unfolds against the backdrop of a sprawling field, where equestrian competitions are taking place. The atmosphere is filled with excitement as onlookers gather around to witness the thrilling displays of horsemanship. The countryside setting adds an idyllic charm to the event, with lush greenery stretching as far as the eye can see. It's evident that this gymkhana was not just about competition but also served as a gathering for rural communities. Both riders don traditional riding attire of the era - trilby hats for men and elegant riding hats for women - showcasing their commitment to style even amidst intense sporting action. This remarkable photograph is part of the George Garland Collection housed at West Sussex Record Office (Ref No: Garland N16613A). Preserved meticulously over time, it serves as a testament to our rich equestrian heritage and offers us a glimpse into life during the 1930s
