EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque coastal village of East Wittering, West Sussex, in 1902. The focal point of this image is the magnificent Cakeham Tower, standing tall and proud amidst a beautifully manicured lawn. Its architectural grandeur reflects the elegance and charm of Edwardian-era design. As we gaze at this scene, we can almost feel the gentle sea breeze on our faces and hear the distant sound of crashing waves. The tower's proximity to the seaside reminds us of East Wittering's idyllic location along England's southern coast. The rural surroundings add to the tranquility captured in this photograph. Lush green fields stretch out beyond the tower, creating a peaceful backdrop that perfectly complements its stately presence. In addition to its natural beauty, this image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. It transports us back over a century ago when life was simpler and slower-paced. The inclusion of an adjacent church building further enhances this nostalgic sentiment. It serves as a reminder that these structures were not just places of worship but also integral parts of community life during that time. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's John Fletcher Collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both historical architecture and West Sussex County Council's commitment to preserving local heritage for future generations' enjoyment.
