EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the quaint village of Henley in 1909. The focal point is the charming Parsons Cottage, standing proudly amidst a picturesque garden. Its thatched roof exudes an air of rustic elegance, while its whitewashed walls hint at a simpler time gone by. As we gaze upon this idyllic scene, our eyes are drawn beyond the cottage towards the majestic Downs in the background. These rolling hills provide a breathtaking backdrop, their lush greenery contrasting beautifully with the serene blue sky above. The carefully manicured garden surrounding Parsons Cottage adds to its allure. Bursting with vibrant flowers and neatly trimmed hedges, it invites us to imagine leisurely strolls on warm summer afternoons or perhaps enjoying tea under a shady tree. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this image offers a glimpse into rural life over a century ago. It captures not only architectural beauty but also showcases nature's splendor and human ingenuity in creating harmonious spaces. While we cannot help but appreciate this photograph's aesthetic appeal, it is important to note that any commercial use should be avoided as per regulations set forth by West Sussex County Council. Instead, let us relish in its historical significance and allow ourselves to be transported back to an era where simplicity reigned supreme and natural landscapes provided solace from bustling city life.
