Chimney Street Scene Winter Roof Line
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the picturesque Pound Street of Petworth, frozen in a winter wonderland. This print from December 1938 captures the essence of a bygone era. The scene is set amidst a blanket of glistening snow, transforming the quaint street into a nostalgic masterpiece. In this snapshot, our gaze is drawn towards an enchanting horse-drawn cart making its way through the snowy terrain. The rhythmic clip-clop of hooves on cobblestones echoes through the air as it passes by charming cottages adorned with smoke-filled chimneys. The roof lines create a symphony of angles against the backdrop of pure white snowflakes falling gracefully from above. This George Garland Collection photograph, carefully preserved by West Sussex Record Office, offers us a glimpse into daily life during that wintry December almost eight decades ago. It evokes feelings of warmth and nostalgia while reminding us how much has changed since then. As we admire this historical gem, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also reflect on the resilience and simplicity that characterized life in those times. It serves as a reminder to cherish our heritage and preserve these precious moments for future generations to enjoy
