EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1908, showcasing a picturesque scene along the Robertsbridge road in Brightling, Sussex. The image is part of the renowned John Fletcher Collection titled "Wanderings in Sussex" and is now housed within the Photographic Collection at West Sussex Record Office. In this black and white snapshot, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carriages were still a common sight on rural roads. The composition beautifully captures the tranquility of this countryside setting. Lush green fields stretch out on either side of the road, dotted with charming cottages nestled amidst nature's embrace. The photographer's keen eye has immortalized a moment frozen in time - one can almost feel the gentle breeze rustling through leaves and hear horses' hooves softly clip-clopping against cobblestones. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when life moved at a slower pace. This historical gem from West Sussex County Council's archives allows us to appreciate how much our surroundings have evolved over more than a century. It invites us to reflect upon our connection with nature and cherish our heritage. As we gaze upon this enchanting photograph, let it transport us back to that bygone era; let it inspire gratitude for those who came before us and shaped these landscapes; let it encourage preservation so future generations may also experience such timeless beauty.
