EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from March 1927 takes us back in time to the picturesque countryside of West Sussex. The scene captures a moment of rural charm as a majestic farmhorse is being ridden home along Horsham Road in Petworth. The horse, with its powerful build and gentle demeanor, stands out against the backdrop of an old car parked by the roadside. The image exudes tranquility as it showcases a harmonious coexistence between man and nature. A farmer, dressed in traditional attire, guides his loyal companion through this idyllic country lane lined with stone walls. The undulating downs stretch into the distance, adding depth to the photograph's composition. Transported to an era when horses were still relied upon for daily tasks, we are reminded of simpler times when life moved at a slower pace. This snapshot serves as a reminder that progress has transformed our landscapes but also highlights the beauty that remains unchanged. Preserved by West Sussex County Council, this historical gem offers us a glimpse into our rich agricultural heritage while evoking nostalgia for days gone by. It encapsulates not only an era but also represents values such as hard work and respect for nature that continue to resonate today
