EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the winter wonderland of 1938, as captured by George Garland's lens. This print showcases Stopham Bridge adorned with a pristine blanket of snow, transforming it into an enchanting scene straight out of a storybook. The bridge stands gracefully amidst the wintry landscape, its stone walls and telegraph poles creating a picturesque frame. In this frozen moment, we catch sight of a lone figure braving the cold, carefully making their way across the bridge. Their footprints mark their path on the icy surface, reminding us of the resilience and determination required to navigate such treacherous conditions. Adding to this nostalgic ambiance are traffic lights set at green - a symbol of movement and progress against nature's icy grip. They serve as a reminder that even in times when everything seems frozen and still, life continues its course. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this photograph invites us to reflect on our connection with history and appreciate how landscapes can transform over time. As we gaze upon this timeless image, let us embrace the beauty and tranquility that winter brings while acknowledging those who have walked these paths before us.
