EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1907, capturing a close view of a majestic windmill standing proudly at Argus Hill. Its towering presence dominates the frame, with its magnificent sails gracefully catching the breeze. The intricate details of this historic structure are beautifully preserved in this image from the John Fletcher Collection: "Wanderings in Sussex". In front of the windmill, we catch a glimpse of life in that era as a horse-drawn cart passes by. This juxtaposition between tradition and progress adds depth to the photograph, reminding us of simpler times when technology coexisted harmoniously with nature. The West Sussex Record Office has done an exceptional job preserving this piece of history within their Photographic Collection. With reference number PH 26115/177, they have ensured that future generations can appreciate and learn from our rich heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to an era where windmills were not just functional structures but symbols of ingenuity and self-sufficiency. They harnessed nature's power to grind grain or pump water, providing sustenance for communities across Sussex. Let this photograph serve as a reminder of our connection to the past and inspire us to cherish our cultural heritage. It is through these glimpses into history that we gain insight into who we are today and how far we have come on our journey through time.
