EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Blackstone: The Terrace, 1909" takes us on a nostalgic journey back in time. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are drawn to a quaint road that stretches into the distance. On the left-hand side, a row of charming houses stands proudly, each with its own unique character and story to tell. The terrace exudes an air of simplicity and elegance, showcasing architectural styles of the early 20th century. These homes bear witness to countless lives lived within their walls - stories of love, laughter, and perhaps even sorrow. It is as if they hold secrets from bygone eras waiting patiently to be discovered. The blackstone road beneath our feet adds an intriguing element to this snapshot from history. Its dark hue contrasts beautifully against the surrounding landscape and serves as a reminder of how time has weathered these streets. Preserved within West Sussex County Council's Photographic Collection at the West Sussex Record Office, this photograph offers us a glimpse into everyday life over a century ago. It transports us back to an era where horse-drawn carriages roamed these very roads and gas lamps illuminated the night sky. As we admire this remarkable piece of history captured through lens and film, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its significance in preserving memories for future generations.
