EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s captures a delightful scene of leisure and camaraderie. A group of elegantly dressed individuals are engrossed in a spirited game of croquet, showcasing both their refined fashion sense and their love for outdoor activities. The image, part of the Photographic Collection at West Sussex Record Office, transports us back to an era where leisure time was cherished and enjoyed with friends. The men don dapper suits complete with waistcoats, ties, and polished shoes while the women display fashionable long dresses adorned with intricate lace details and wide-brimmed hats. Their attire reflects the elegance and sophistication that characterized this period in history. As they gracefully swing their mallets to strike colorful balls through hoops meticulously placed on a well-manicured lawn, one can almost hear laughter mingling with the sound of wood connecting with ball. Croquet provided not only exercise but also an opportunity for social interaction among these individuals who clearly relished each other's company. This snapshot offers a glimpse into an idyllic pastime enjoyed by residents of West Sussex County. It reminds us that amidst our busy lives today, taking time for leisurely pursuits is essential for fostering connections and maintaining overall well-being. Let this charming photograph inspire you to embrace moments of relaxation, recreation, and friendship – just as these individuals did over a century ago in picturesque West Sussex.
