EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time, as cricketers walk onto the pitch at Priory Park in Chichester for a charity match on 12 August 1956. The image, part of the esteemed Chichester Photographic Collection housed at the West Sussex Record Office, evokes nostalgia for a bygone era of sportsmanship and community spirit. In this snapshot from the 1950s, we witness a group of determined sportsmen clad in their cricket whites, ready to showcase their skills on this hallowed ground. Their faces reveal anticipation mixed with camaraderie as they prepare to engage in friendly competition for a noble cause. The lush green field serves as an idyllic backdrop, highlighting both the natural beauty of Priory Park and the timeless allure of cricket. The significance of this event extends beyond mere sport; it symbolizes unity and compassion within the local community. This charity match undoubtedly brought people together – spectators cheering from the sidelines, families enjoying picnics under shady trees, and players demonstrating their prowess with bat and ball. Preserved meticulously by West Sussex County Council's archives team, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era when leisure activities like cricket were cherished pastimes that fostered bonds among individuals across generations.
