EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1932, we are transported back in time to a simpler era. The image showcases two young girls, their faces beaming with joy as they embark on an adventure through the idyllic countryside of West Sussex. Bundled up in warm coats and hats, these spirited children brave the winter chill to gather holly for Christmas decorations. Walking along a narrow lane flanked by ancient trees, their wellington boots leave imprints on the frost-covered ground. The rustic charm of rural life is palpable as they clutch bundles of vibrant holly branches in their gloved hands. Their rosy cheeks and twinkling eyes reflect the excitement that fills the air during this festive season. This remarkable photo print, part of the George Garland Collection housed at West Sussex Record Office, captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes nostalgia for a bygone era. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children found joy in simple pleasures such as exploring nature's bounty. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, it transports us back to our own childhood memories filled with wonder and anticipation during Christmastime. Let us cherish this timeless snapshot that encapsulates both innocence and holiday spirit while celebrating the beauty of West Sussex's countryside heritage.
