EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print takes us back in time to the enchanting village of Goring, where a secular building stands proudly against the backdrop of a bustling railway station. Dating back to approximately 1899, this photograph captures the essence of an era long gone. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly Goring railway station's up platform. The platform exudes an air of anticipation and excitement as passengers wait eagerly for their trains to arrive or bid farewell to loved ones departing on their journeys. The sepia tones add a touch of nostalgia, transporting us into a bygone age when steam engines ruled the tracks. Preserved within the Hordern Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this rare gem offers a glimpse into our rich transportation history. It serves as a testament to how railways played an integral role in connecting communities and fostering economic growth during that period. While details about the secular building remain scarce, its presence adds intrigue and curiosity to this scene. Perhaps it served as a meeting place for locals or housed essential services for travelers passing through Goring. As we admire this remarkable piece from West Sussex County Council's General Photographic Collection, let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also the craftsmanship behind capturing such moments frozen in time.
