EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from June 1944 showcases the idyllic scene of Agricultural Cottages at Balls Cross. A row of brand new brick and tile-hung cottages stands proudly, ready to welcome their occupants. Nestled in the heart of rural West Sussex, these charming homes symbolize a pivotal moment in history when agriculture and housing became intrinsically tied. The photograph exudes a sense of tranquility as it captures the essence of farm life during the 1940s. The cottages' chimneys gently release plumes of smoke, hinting at warm hearths within. Each cottage boasts a quaint porch, inviting residents to sit back and enjoy the surrounding countryside after a long day's work on the farm. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this image offers us an intimate glimpse into an era defined by simplicity and hard work. It serves as a reminder that even amidst tumultuous times like World War II, communities prioritized providing comfortable housing for those who worked tirelessly to sustain our agricultural heritage. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also its aesthetic beauty. The harmonious blend of nature and human habitation depicted here is truly enchanting—a testament to both architectural craftsmanship and Mother Nature's bountiful gifts
