EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print from 1895 takes us back in time to the charming streets of Petworth, where history and architecture intertwine. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly St Marys, Petworth's magnificent church tower and steeple, proudly reaching towards the sky. Its elegant clock stands as a timeless symbol of this picturesque town. As we explore the street view captured in this photograph, our eyes are drawn to an array of buildings that showcase different ages and architectural styles. Each structure tells its own story, reflecting the rich heritage that permeates every corner of Petworth. Amidst this architectural tapestry stands a horse-drawn carriage, seemingly frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of how transportation has evolved over the years and adds an extra touch of nostalgia to this already enchanting scene. The Hordern Collection at West Sussex Record Office has preserved this precious piece of history for future generations to admire. Through their General Photographic Collection, they have allowed us a glimpse into bygone days when life moved at a slower pace. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past; they remind us not only of how far we have come but also inspire us to preserve and celebrate our cultural heritage for generations yet unborn.
