EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the charming Square at Findon, circa 1913. The image, postmarked on 9 May 1913, beautifully captures a snapshot of daily life in this picturesque village. In the foreground, we see a group of children dressed in smocks and coats, their youthful energy palpable even through the lens of history. The Square itself is adorned with quaint buildings that tell stories of their own. On one side stands the Telegraph Office, an essential hub for communication during those times. Its presence symbolizes the interconnectedness between Findon and the wider world beyond its borders. Adjacent to it is Winton & Son shop front, a testament to local commerce and trade that sustained this close-knit community. As we delve deeper into this photograph's details, we are transported back to an era where simplicity reigned supreme. The absence of modern technology allows us to appreciate life's simpler pleasures – children playing freely in open spaces while neighbors engage in friendly conversations. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection under Ref No: PH 1413, this historical gem serves as a reminder of how much has changed over the past century while also highlighting our shared humanity across generations
