EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time - the Lurgashall Fete of July 1940. In the foreground, a group of children can be seen performing with sheer delight on what appears to be a makeshift stage. Their faces radiate joy as they showcase their talents, perhaps singing or dancing for the gathered crowd. Behind them, an intense game of cricket unfolds on a sun-drenched field, drawing the attention of both players and spectators alike. The atmosphere is electric as villagers come together to celebrate this cherished annual event. The fete serves as a testament to the resilience and unity of this tight-knit community during challenging times. It is evident that despite being amidst war-torn years, life goes on in Lurgashall with unwavering spirit. The image offers us a glimpse into simpler times when communities found solace in coming together for moments of joy and camaraderie. The scene exudes nostalgia, reminding us of the importance placed on tradition and shared experiences even during tumultuous periods. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Garland Collection, this photograph allows us to connect with history by capturing not only an event but also emotions felt by those present at that very moment. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos, human connection remains vital – whether through fair games or displays like these – fostering bonds that endure throughout generations.
