EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by George Garland in September 1939, transports us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases a group of evacuees bathing at the picturesque Pulborough river bank in West Sussex during World War II. As war raged on, rural areas like this provided a temporary sanctuary for children who were forced to leave their homes due to the conflict. The scene is filled with an air of innocence and tranquility as these young souls find solace amidst chaos. Their laughter echoes through the photograph, reminding us that even during wartime, moments of joy and recreation can still be found. The river's gentle flow serves as a backdrop for their carefree playfulness, offering respite from the harsh realities they have left behind. George Garland's lens captures not only the physical beauty of this idyllic location but also reveals the resilience and strength within these children. They embody hope for a brighter future despite being caught up in such tumultuous times. Preserved by the West Sussex Record Office, this remarkable piece of history reminds us of humanity's ability to find solace and create memories even under challenging circumstances. It stands as a testament to both the hardships endured during World War II and our collective determination to persevere against all odds.
