EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1907, offering a glimpse into Main Street at Rotherfield. The image, part of the esteemed John Fletcher Collection titled "Wanderings in Sussex" showcases a general view of this bustling street frozen in history. Preserved within the Photographic Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate the charm and character that once adorned this quaint English village. As we delve into the photograph's details, we are transported to an era where horse-drawn carriages and bicycles were the primary modes of transport. The main street is lined with charming brick buildings on either side, their facades showcasing architectural styles popular during that period. People can be seen strolling along the pavement or engaging in conversation outside shops and establishments. The black-and-white composition adds a timeless quality to this snapshot from over a century ago. It invites us to imagine what life was like for those who called Rotherfield home during this bygone era – their daily routines, aspirations, and dreams. Thanks to initiatives such as West Sussex County Council's commitment to preserving historical records like these photographs, we have been granted access to our rich heritage. This particular print serves as both a visual testament and an invaluable resource for anyone seeking insight into Rotherfield's past.
