EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, capturing a timeless scene of sheep-washing in the picturesque River Arun. The image showcases the daily routine at Peppering Farm, near Burpham, where two men can be seen standing inside barrels in a fenced-off washing area by the riverbank. Their presence highlights their role as caretakers of these gentle creatures. In the background, we witness other workers preparing to guide more sheep into the water. The anticipation is palpable as they carefully navigate through this natural washing station. Behind them, a herd of sheep patiently waits behind hurdles on the hillside. The charm and simplicity of rural life during this Edwardian era are beautifully preserved within this photograph. It offers us a glimpse into an agricultural practice that has been carried out for generations – tending to and maintaining cleanliness among livestock. Preserved within West Sussex County Council's Walter Gardiner Photography Collection, this image serves as a testament to our shared history and connection with nature. It reminds us of simpler times when hard work and dedication were essential elements of everyday life on farms like Peppering Farm. As we admire this remarkable snapshot from yesteryear, let it transport us back to an era when rivers served not only as sources of sustenance but also as communal gathering places where both man and beast found solace amidst nature's embrace.
