EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of St Andrews Church in West Stoke. Taken from the south, it offers a stunning exterior view of the church and its surrounding churchyard. The walls of this historic place of worship are gracefully adorned with ivy, adding a touch of natural elegance to the scene. Despite its poor condition and faint picture quality, this print from the Hordern Collection in West Sussex Record Office preserves a moment frozen in time. It serves as a reminder of the rich history that lies within these ancient walls. The image transports us back to an era when simplicity reigned supreme, where communities gathered under this very roof for solace and prayer. It invites us to imagine generations past who sought comfort within these hallowed grounds. While we may not know much about the photographer or their intentions behind capturing this particular shot, what remains clear is their appreciation for architectural beauty and preserving moments worth remembering. This print stands as a testament to both our collective heritage and our desire to preserve it for future generations. Its black and white composition adds an air of nostalgia, reminding us that even amidst decayed prints, there is still immense value in capturing fleeting moments etched into history's tapestry.
