EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Plaistow, 1909" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the past. The image showcases a picturesque view of this quaint village nestled in West Sussex. As we peer through the lens, our eyes are immediately drawn towards the charming church that stands proudly at the heart of Plaistow. The composition is beautifully framed by a tree on the right side, its branches reaching out as if to embrace this idyllic scene. On the left, a horse-drawn cart adds an element of nostalgia and transports us back to simpler times. Its presence serves as a reminder of how life once revolved around these gentle creatures and their indispensable role in daily activities. Beyond the church and cart lies an enchanting cluster of cottages that dot the landscape with their rustic charm. These humble abodes exude warmth and character, hinting at stories untold within their walls. As we take in this panoramic vista from afar, one can almost imagine hearing echoes of laughter and witnessing everyday life unfold before our very eyes. This photograph truly captures not just a moment frozen in time but also encapsulates an entire era's essence - one where community spirit thrived amidst nature's embrace. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this remarkable image invites us to reflect upon Plaistow's rich heritage while igniting our imagination about what life was like over a century ago.
