EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the rural countryside of Upperton in December 1935. Four young girls, their eyes filled with wonder and curiosity, gather around a country man as he leisurely lights his pipe. The scene takes place amidst a picturesque landscape adorned with holly bushes. The image captures the essence of a simpler time, where children found joy in the simplest pleasures nature had to offer. These innocent souls stand by an old wooden gate leading to a footpath that winds through the enchanting countryside. A tattered hedge serves as their backdrop, adding charm and character to the scene. As winter approaches and Christmas draws near, these children embark on an adventure to gather holly for festive decorations. Their excitement is palpable as they witness this country man indulging in a moment of relaxation amidst his daily routine. This remarkable photograph from the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office allows us to glimpse into the past and appreciate life's simple pleasures. It reminds us of our connection with nature and how it can bring joy even during challenging times
