EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1944, showcasing the remarkable forestry work at Lavington during World War II. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a determined Land Army girl fearlessly maneuvering a tractor down a steep slope, hauling two colossal tree trunks behind her. Her unwavering focus is evident as she expertly navigates the challenging terrain with precision and skill. As she carries out this vital task, another Land Army girl stands nearby, clutching an axe firmly in her hands. With keen interest and admiration, she observes her colleague's impressive display of strength and determination. Together, these resilient women demonstrate their invaluable contribution to the war effort through their involvement in agricultural work. The George Garland Collection beautifully captures this momentous scene that symbolizes not only the crucial role played by women during wartime but also highlights the significance of agriculture in sustaining our nation's needs amidst adversity. This historical photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how ordinary individuals were called upon to perform extraordinary feats for their country. Preserved by West Sussex Record Office under Ref. No. Garland N23192, this image offers us a glimpse into an era defined by resilience and unity against all odds.
