EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from 1850, the residents of Sackville College Almshouses in East Grinstead, Surrey, come together to celebrate Palm Sunday in the timbered and vaulted hall of their community. Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, the final week of Lent leading up to Easter, and is traditionally observed with the waving of palm branches. The residents, dressed in their Sunday best, gather around the large table, their faces filled with joy and devotion as they participate in this age-old custom. Founded in 1599 by Thomas Sackville, 1st Earl of Dorset, the Sackville College Almshouses have provided shelter, care, and support for the elderly and infirm of East Grinstead for over four centuries. The almshouse, with its intricately timbered and vaulted hall, has stood as a symbol of charity and community in the heart of the town. The residents' celebration of Palm Sunday in this historic setting underscores the enduring importance of the almshouse as a place of fellowship and spiritual connection. The image captures a moment of unity and togetherness, as the residents come together to mark the beginning of Holy Week. The warm glow of the fireplace, the simple yet elegant decorations, and the joyful expressions of the residents all contribute to a sense of peace and contentment. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of an almshouse community in the mid-19th century, providing a poignant reminder of the importance of compassion, care, and community.
