EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1912, capturing the essence of an old house nestled in the charming town of Steyning. The image showcases a group of children sitting on the wall right in front of this historic dwelling, adding a touch of innocence and playfulness to its timeless facade. The John Fletcher Collection, carefully preserved by the West Sussex Record Office, allows us to glimpse into a bygone era where simplicity reigned supreme. This particular snapshot encapsulates not only architectural heritage but also evokes feelings of nostalgia for a simpler way of life. The cottage-like structure exudes character with its weathered exterior and rustic charm. Its sturdy walls have witnessed countless stories unfold within their embrace throughout the 20th century. One can't help but imagine generations growing up within these very walls - laughter echoing through hallways, secrets shared under its roof. This photograph transports us back to our own childhood memories; it reminds us that once upon a time, children found joy in simple pleasures like sitting on stone walls and basking in each other's company. It serves as a reminder that amidst all progress and modernity, there is something truly magical about embracing tradition and cherishing our roots. As we admire this remarkable piece from West Sussex County Council's collection, let it serve as an invitation to explore our own personal histories while appreciating the enduring beauty found within domestic architecture – forever etched into our collective memory.
