EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Brightling: Street view, 1908" takes us back in time to a quaint village nestled in the heart of Sussex. With its cobbled streets and charming cottages, this street view at the top of the hill exudes an old-world charm that is both nostalgic and enchanting. The photographer, John Fletcher, skillfully captures the essence of Brightling's picturesque landscape. The image invites us to take a leisurely stroll through time as we explore every detail within this idyllic scene. From the neatly lined houses adorned with colorful flowers to the towering trees that provide shade along the road, it is evident that life here was simple yet full of character. As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported into an era where horse-drawn carriages were still a common sight and neighbors greeted each other warmly on their daily walks. The atmosphere seems serene and peaceful, offering respite from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this precious piece of history serves as a testament to our shared heritage. It reminds us to cherish our past while embracing progress. This photograph allows us to appreciate how much has changed since 1908 while also recognizing how some aspects endure throughout time. Let this remarkable image be a window into Brightling's rich history and inspire curiosity about what stories lie behind each door along that historic street atop the hill.
