EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the quaint village of Ticehurst in 1907. The street view captured here offers a glimpse into the daily life of this idyllic Sussex community, frozen in a moment that exudes charm and simplicity. In the foreground, we are greeted by a horse-drawn cart, symbolizing an era when horsepower was still king. Its presence adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene, reminding us of a time when transportation relied on the strength and grace of these magnificent animals. The village itself is beautifully showcased with its charming architecture lining both sides of the street. Each building tells its own story, standing as witnesses to years gone by and preserving their unique character for generations to come. As we gaze at this remarkable image from the John Fletcher Collection's "Wanderings in Sussex" our imagination wanders through time. We can almost hear the distant sounds of bustling activity - conversations between neighbors, children playing games on cobblestone streets, and perhaps even snippets of laughter echoing through open windows. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this photograph serves as a window into history. It allows us to appreciate how much has changed while also recognizing what remains timeless about small villages like Ticehurst – their enduring sense of community and picturesque beauty that continues to captivate hearts even over a century later.
