EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1902 showcases the historic Spread Eagle inn in Midhurst, West Sussex. The image captures a bustling corner of the inn, with children and people filling the vibrant streets. Preserved within the John Fletcher Collection at the West Sussex Record Office, this snapshot offers a glimpse into rural life during Edwardian times. The Spread Eagle inn stands as a testament to both heritage and industry in this charming town. As a public house and hotel, it served as an essential hub for locals and travelers alike. Its significance as a posting house cannot be understated, providing respite for weary travelers journeying through West Sussex. The scene depicted in this photograph exudes an unmistakable sense of community. Children playfully roam the streets while adults engage in animated conversations outside the pub's entrance. This lively atmosphere reflects not only Midhurst's urban charm but also its close-knit rural character. Thanks to the meticulous preservation efforts by West Sussex County Council, we are able to appreciate this remarkable piece of history today. While commercial use is prohibited for this particular photo print, its value lies in its ability to transport us back in time—to an era where trade thrived and hostelry played an integral role in local society. As we gaze upon this image, let us reflect on how our towns have evolved over time while cherishing their unique heritage that continues to shape our communities today.
