EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the picturesque town of Steyning in 1912. The image, part of the John Fletcher Collection at West Sussex Record Office, showcases a quintessential scene from rural West Sussex. In this snapshot of history, we are transported to an era where water pumps played a vital role in everyday life. Standing proudly against a backdrop of charming architecture, these pumps were not just functional but also served as iconic symbols of domestic heritage. They remind us of simpler times when communities relied on shared resources for their daily needs. The composition beautifully captures the essence of Steyning's architectural charm with its quaint houses and homes dotting the landscape. These buildings stand as testaments to the enduring beauty and character that define this historic town even today. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, it is impossible not to feel a sense of nostalgia for bygone days. It serves as a reminder that progress may have brought modern conveniences, but there is something undeniably enchanting about the simplicity and authenticity captured within these frames. Thanks to West Sussex County Council's dedication to preserving our rich heritage, we can now appreciate and reflect upon moments like these - frozen in time yet forever etched into our collective memory.
