EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque village of Midhurst on a seemingly tranquil day. The date is etched as 28 August 1947, and it appears to be early morning or perhaps an early closing day, as the street stands eerily quiet. The focal point of this charming scene is the prominent Westminster Bank building, standing tall with its classic architecture and timeless elegance. Adjacent to the bank lies the Wheatsheaf Inn, a quintessential English pub that exudes warmth and hospitality. Its inviting facade beckons passersby to step inside for a refreshing pint or a cozy meal. As we explore further into this snapshot of history, our eyes are drawn towards two commercial signs that catch our attention - one belonging to Midhurst Engineering Works and another advertising an RAC Garage. The atmosphere captured in this photograph transports us back in time when life moved at a slower pace, where villagers would gather at local establishments like these after their daily routines. It's fascinating how much has changed since then; however, some things remain constant - the charm of small-town living and community spirit. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office Ref No. Garland N28670, this image serves as a reminder of bygone days while offering glimpses into Midhurst's rich heritage. Let us cherish these moments frozen in time as we appreciate both the beauty of simplicity and progress that shapes our present-day lives.
