Agriculture Barn Farm Harvest Machine Ferguson
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the summer of 1948, where the rural landscape of Brinsbury Farm in Adversane comes alive with bustling activity. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a scene that epitomizes the essence of farm life - silage making. At the forefront stands a young girl confidently perched atop a vintage tractor, her hands firmly gripping the steering wheel as she navigates through the fields. Behind her trails a man leading a majestic horse, their partnership symbolizing the harmonious blend of traditional and modern farming methods. The image exudes an air of hard work and dedication as these individuals come together to ensure a bountiful harvest. The barn looms in the background, its weathered facade standing tall against time's relentless passage. This picturesque setting serves as both sanctuary and workshop for those who toil tirelessly on this land. The iconic Ferguson TE20 tractor affectionately known as "Little Grey Fergie" takes center stage here, proudly showcasing its role in revolutionizing agriculture during that era. Its presence is not merely symbolic; it represents progress and innovation within an industry deeply rooted in tradition. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this photograph captures more than just silage making at Brinsbury Farm; it encapsulates an entire way of life - one defined by resilience, community spirit, and unwavering commitment to nurturing our lands for future generations
