EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photo print, we are transported back to a snowy Christmas scene in 1938 at Soanes farmhouse in Sussex. A group of carol singers, bundled up in their warm clothes, brave the blizzard as they gather outside the charming farmhouse. The snow-covered ground glistens under the soft glow of lanterns held by these merry singers. The children among them wear big smiles on their rosy cheeks, radiating happiness despite the cold. They clutch onto their Christmas cards tightly, eager to spread joy through song and festive greetings. Each member of this spirited ensemble is adorned with scarves and mufflers to protect themselves from the biting winter chill. A candle flickers inside a window of the farmhouse, casting a warm glow that contrasts beautifully with the wintry landscape outside. It serves as a beacon of comfort and hospitality for these dedicated carolers who have braved adverse weather conditions to share their melodic cheer. Their sturdy boots leave imprints in the freshly fallen snow as they sing traditional carols that echo through the frosty air. This heartwarming snapshot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also embodies the true spirit of Christmas - community coming together amidst adversity to celebrate love and joy. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this photograph reminds us of simpler times when warmth was found not only in cozy clothing but also within hearts united by tradition and goodwill towards all.
