In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the idyllic Strood Farm in March 1940. The image captures a heartwarming scene of human compassion towards nature as a farmer is seen bottle feeding a delicate lamb. This tender act of nurturing showcases the deep bond between man and animal, reminding us of our responsibility to care for all creatures. Set against the backdrop of a rustic barn, one can almost feel the warmth emanating from within its weathered walls. The simplicity and authenticity of rural life are palpable in this snapshot from history. It serves as a poignant reminder that amidst the chaos of war, life continued on these serene landscapes. The George Garland Collection held at West Sussex Record Office has preserved this precious moment for future generations to appreciate. Through their meticulous archiving efforts, they have ensured that stories like these endure beyond their original context. This photograph encapsulates the essence of farm life during an era when hand-rearing animals was not only necessary but also an art form passed down through generations. It speaks volumes about the dedication and commitment required to sustain agricultural livelihoods. As we gaze upon this timeless image, let us be reminded of our connection with nature and how acts of kindness towards animals can bring solace even in times marked by turmoil.
