EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, captured on the 14th of September in 1935, takes us back to a simpler time. The image showcases a picturesque view of the long furlong near Findon, as a shepherd leads his herd of sheep across the rolling Downs. This annual journey from Angmering to Findon Sheep Fair was an integral part of West Sussex's agricultural heritage. The photograph exudes nostalgia and transports us to an era when farming practices were deeply rooted in tradition. It serves as a poignant reminder of the hard work and dedication that went into shepherding these animals through vast landscapes for centuries. The sight of countless woolly creatures dotting the countryside evokes feelings of tranquility and harmony with nature. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded not only of our connection to the land but also our reliance on agriculture for sustenance. It is a testament to the vital role that sheep played in providing food, clothing, and livelihoods for communities during this period. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into rural life during the 1930s – an era defined by simplicity and resilience. Let it serve as a tribute to those who dedicated their lives to nurturing both their flocks and their beloved countryside.
