EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the idyllic countryside of Soanes Farm in Petworth on a sunny day, precisely on 5th June 1945. The image beautifully captures two majestic shire horses, their powerful frames glistening under the sun's rays as they diligently pull a roller across a vast field. Guiding them with expertise is a farm hand, his weathered face reflecting years of hard work and dedication to this timeless craft. In an era where agriculture was still heavily reliant on traditional methods, this snapshot showcases the importance of preparing and conditioning the land for productive farming. The roller itself stands as a symbol of essential equipment used during that period to flatten and level uneven terrain before planting crops or grazing livestock. The scene exudes tranquility and simplicity, transporting us to a time when rural life was deeply intertwined with nature's rhythms. It serves as a poignant reminder of our agricultural heritage and the tireless efforts made by those who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to sustain their communities. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this photograph offers us an invaluable glimpse into our past. It encapsulates not only an era but also highlights how farming practices have evolved over time. Let it serve as inspiration for future generations to appreciate both our rich history and ongoing commitment towards sustainable agriculture.
