EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to Horsleys Green Camp in the late 1940s. Two men, dressed in their timeless attire of the era, stand proudly beside a pre-war Morris motor car at the entrance to the camp. The vintage vehicle exudes an air of nostalgia and adventure, with its sleek lines and polished exterior. As our gaze shifts towards the background, we catch a glimpse of vibrant national snapdragons dancing gracefully in the gentle breeze. These colorful flowers add a touch of natural beauty to this snapshot frozen in time. The setting itself is reminiscent of a peaceful holiday retreat; one can almost imagine families strolling along these very grounds during warm summer afternoons. The carefully crafted headlamp and mudguard on display highlight both attention to detail and craftsmanship that was characteristic of that era. Through the windscreen, we get a glimpse into another world - perhaps an idyllic countryside or bustling cityscape awaits just beyond our view. It serves as a reminder that life continues moving forward even as moments like these are captured forever. This remarkable photograph captures not only a moment but also evokes emotions tied to memories long gone by. It stands as a testament to West Sussex's rich history and is preserved for generations to come at West Sussex Record Office under reference number N30598 – ensuring that this slice of local heritage remains alive for all who wish to explore it further.
