EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1902 takes us back in time to the charming village of South Harting in West Sussex. The image showcases the main street, offering a glimpse into the daily life and architectural heritage of this rural community during the Edwardian era. In the foreground, we see children joyfully playing on the street, near a quaint school building. Their laughter and energy bring an air of innocence to this idyllic scene. As our eyes wander further down the street, we are greeted by two prominent landmarks - the church of Saint Mary and Saint Gabriel on one side, and two historic pubs, namely The White Hart and The Ship Inn, on the other. The architecture is simply breathtaking; each building exudes its own unique charm with their traditional designs that have stood against time. These structures serve as a testament to South Harting's rich history and cultural significance within West Sussex. As we delve deeper into this snapshot of history, it becomes evident that trade played a vital role in shaping this countryside community. The presence of these bustling pubs suggests a vibrant social scene where locals would gather for drinks or engage in lively conversations after a long day's work. Overall, this print encapsulates not only South Harting's picturesque beauty but also offers valuable insights into its heritage and way of life over a century ago. It serves as an invaluable piece preserved by John Fletcher Collection at West Sussex Record Office for future generations to appreciate and cherish.
