EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the picturesque Alfriston Village on a crisp autumn day, precisely on 15 October 1947. The view captures our attention as it leads towards the iconic Market Cross, with the charming Market Inn standing proudly on the right-hand side. The inn's listed status is evident in its timeless architecture, adorned with beautiful tile hung walls that exude rustic charm. In this idyllic scene, a diligent workman can be seen diligently sweeping up fallen leaves from the cobbled street. His presence adds a touch of authenticity to this rural setting, showcasing the village's commitment to cleanliness even during the enchanting season of autumn. The George Garland Collection has preserved this remarkable moment in time for future generations to appreciate and admire. This historical gem now resides at West Sussex Record Office under reference number N29074. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to experience Alfriston Village as it was over seven decades ago. Its tranquil ambiance and untouched beauty continue to captivate visitors today, making it an enduring destination for those seeking solace amidst nature's splendor or exploring its intriguing past
