EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming postcard image of The Smugglers Inn, located in the picturesque village of Alfriston in East Sussex. Dating back to the 16th century, this historic inn is nestled in Waterloo Square and has long been a popular destination for travelers and locals alike. The exterior of the inn, as captured in this photograph from the 1920s, exudes a sense of history and tradition. The timber-framed building, with its exposed beams and thatched roof, is adorned with ivy and climbing plants, adding to its rustic charm. The low-hanging signs above the door, featuring a smuggler's jester's hat and a barrel of ale, hint at the inn's rich past. The scene is set against a backdrop of rolling hills and lush greenery, with the sun casting a warm glow over the square. A horse-drawn cart is parked outside, adding to the sense of a bygone era. It is easy to imagine the innkeepers going about their daily routines, serving hearty meals and refreshing ales to weary travelers. The Smugglers Inn has a storied history, with tales of smuggling and intrigue woven into its fabric. Located on the coast, Alfriston was once a hotspot for smuggling activity, and the inn is said to have been used as a hideout for smugglers in the past. Today, it is a beloved destination for those seeking a taste of history and tradition, with its cozy fireplaces, comfortable accommodations, and delicious food. This postcard image, captured by Grenville Collins, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to imagine the stories that unfolded within the walls of this historic inn.
