EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the summer of 1931, where farming in rural West Sussex was a way of life. The image showcases Messrs. J. O. Lugg & Son of Billingshurst engaged in steam threshing, an essential process during harvest time. Photographed by George Garland, this remarkable piece from the Garland Collection at the West Sussex Record Office perfectly captures the essence of nostalgia and tradition. It transports us to a simpler era when horse-drawn farm machinery and traction engines were vital tools for agricultural work. The scene is set against a picturesque backdrop in the Petworth area, with rolling hills and lush green fields stretching as far as the eye can see. The sun shines brightly overhead, casting long shadows on both man and machine. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the hard work that went into sustaining our communities through agriculture. We can almost hear the rhythmic chugging sound emanating from the powerful steam engine while imagining farmers working tirelessly alongside their trusty horses. This print not only serves as a visual reminder of our rich farming heritage but also pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to cultivating these lands. It is a testament to their resilience and unwavering commitment to feeding generations past and present.
