EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Alfriston - February 1948" takes us back in time to the charming old part of Alfriston village. The Market Square is bustling with activity, as captured by George Garland's lens. In the foreground stands a road sweeper, diligently sweeping away debris with his brush and cart. The historic Market Inn, known as Ye Olde Smugglers Inne, proudly advertises Star Brewery Beers and Wines on its facade. Next to it stands H Wilsons Shop, a local establishment that likely catered to the needs of villagers at the time. A Chemists shop catches our attention too, advertising Foyles Library – a hub for knowledge seekers in this rural community. Dominating the scene is a large stone monument that serves as both a memorial and an emblem of Alfriston's rich history. Its presence reminds us of the deep-rooted heritage embedded within these walls. This photograph from West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection offers us a glimpse into life in Alfriston during the 1940s. It encapsulates not only architectural landmarks but also hints at daily routines and commerce that shaped this idyllic village
