EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1948, capturing a glimpse of history through the lens. The image showcases "The Old Toll Gate House at Ashcombe" standing as a relic from an era long gone. Located on a narrow winding road, this small circular brick structure tells tales of its past as a turnpike established in 1820. Time has not been kind to this once bustling toll gate house, as it now stands in a state of disrepair. Its weathered exterior and crumbling walls bear witness to the passage of time and neglect. Despite its dilapidated condition, there is an undeniable charm that emanates from this listed Grade II building. In the foreground of the photograph, we notice a warning road sign on the right-hand side that reads "Narrow Winding Road". This serves as a reminder of how different transportation was during those times compared to our modern highways and expressways. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this print offers us an opportunity to reflect upon our rich heritage and appreciate the efforts made by organizations like West Sussex County Council in safeguarding these historical treasures for future generations
