EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the bustling streets of Chichester's Eastgate Square in 1881. The Cattle Market Inn stands proudly amidst the chaos of a great snowstorm that engulfed the city on January 4th. This remarkable image, preserved within the Photographic Collection at West Sussex Record Office, offers us a glimpse into a bygone era. The scene is both enchanting and treacherous; as thick blankets of snow cover every surface, transforming familiar surroundings into an ethereal winter wonderland. The inn's sturdy brick facade contrasts starkly against the pure white backdrop, its windows adorned with frosty patterns that seem to dance under the pale light. Despite nature's fury, life goes on in Eastgate Square. Figures bundled up in heavy coats and scarves brave the elements as they navigate through knee-deep drifts. Horses tethered outside shops patiently await their owners' return while carriages make slow progress along partially cleared pathways. This photograph captures not only a specific moment frozen in time but also reflects upon Chichester's resilience and adaptability during challenging weather conditions. It serves as a testament to our shared history and reminds us of how far we have come since those wintry days over a century ago. As we gaze upon this evocative image from West Sussex County Council's collection, let us appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance – for it is through such glimpses into our past that we gain deeper insights
