The rustic architectural beauty of Steyning, West Sussex, is captured in this authentic 1970s colour photograph from 1978. The archival image features the Springwells Hotel and Restaurant, a charming example of the region’s traditional building styles, incorporating red brickwork with decorative flint panels. A significant portion of the facade is draped in lush green ivy, which contrasts with the dark, textured bark of a large mature cedar tree dominating the right foreground. To the left, a white Bedford HA van is parked on the quiet residential street, while the hotel’s ornate wrought-iron hanging sign is visible near a manicured lawn. The background shows adjacent period properties with shingled walls and bay windows, typical of this historic market town. This factual record documents the tranquil character of the South Downs area during the late 1970s, showcasing the enduring appeal of English country hospitality.
