EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Floods at Pulborough - December 1938" transports us back in time to a rural landscape that has been transformed by the forces of nature. The scene depicts several majestic trees standing tall and proud, their silhouettes strikingly contrasted against the dramatic sky. Surrounding them are vast fields submerged under water, evidence of heavy rainfall and flooding that occurred during that fateful December. The image exudes a sense of both tranquility and awe-inspiring power. The picturesque setting is reminiscent of an idyllic countryside painting, with its harmonious blend of natural elements. Yet, it also serves as a reminder of the unpredictable forces that can shape our surroundings. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot from the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, we are transported into an era long gone but not forgotten. It offers us a glimpse into the lives and challenges faced by those who once called Pulborough home. While this print captures a moment frozen in time, it also serves as a testament to resilience and adaptability in the face of adversity. It reminds us that even amidst chaos and destruction caused by floods or any other unforeseen circumstances, nature's beauty endures.
