EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the nostalgic era of 1960s rural West Sussex. In this snapshot, we find ourselves in the heart of Chichester Dairies yard on a sunny day, precisely on August 24th, 1962. Three magnificent lorries are lined up neatly in perfect symmetry, showcasing the impressive fleet that served as the backbone of Chichester's dairy industry. The image exudes a sense of pride and efficiency as these powerful trucks stand tall against the backdrop of lush green fields. These tankers were not just ordinary vehicles; they symbolized an entire community's dedication to agriculture and milk production. As we delve into this historic moment captured by the Chichester Photographic Collection at West Sussex Record Office, it becomes evident that these lorries played a vital role in transporting fresh milk from local farms to households across Sussex. They were more than mere means of transportation; they represented progress and prosperity for both farmers and consumers alike. Although we cannot mention their commercial use due to restrictions set forth by West Sussex County Council, one can only imagine how these lorries traversed winding country roads delivering nourishment to families throughout the region. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of an industry built upon hard work, resilience, and community spirit - values that continue to shape our understanding of rural life today.
