1930s Footpath Rural Tanner Tree Walking Stick Five Bar Gate
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to a serene winter day in January 1935. The image captures the essence of rural life as an old man strolls along a peaceful country lane in Dean, Sussex. With his trusty walking stick in hand, he navigates the track with grace and determination. The simplicity of the scene is striking - a lone figure amidst nature's beauty. As our eyes wander beyond the old man, we notice the tanner trees lining both sides of the lane, their branches reaching out as if to offer solace or guidance. A rustic five-bar gate stands nearby, marking an entrance to another world waiting to be explored. This photograph from the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office allows us a glimpse into a bygone era when footpaths were cherished and time seemed to move at its own leisurely pace. It invites us to reflect on simpler times when people found solace in nature's embrace. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its historical significance. It serves as a reminder that even amidst rapid progress and modernization, there is still value in preserving our connection with nature and embracing moments of tranquility that can be found along forgotten country lanes like this one at Dean, Sussex.
