In Horsham Through Time 19th and 20th century photographs from Horsham Museum's archives have been matched with those taken recently by members of Horsham Photographic Society, now in its 60th anniversary year. These show how many of Horsham's most treasured buildings have survived and found new uses. Horsham's ancient parish church, castellated Town Hall and medieval burgage houses remain largely unchanged alongside modern shopping centres in Swan Walk and Pirie's Place, while other old buildings have been adapted for office or residential use. Some former streets have disappeared under the dual carriageway, built to relieve damaging traffic congestion, but an exciting new public space has been created in The Forum, where the history of Horsham and its surrounding district is imaginatively portrayed on a giant sundial.
When Susan Djabri moved to Horsham in 1992 she became a volunteer at Horsham Museum, organiser of the local history group of the Horsham Museum Society and the Hon. Editor of the local history journal, Horsham Heritage. She has written or edited books on Thomas Medwin, the Shelley family and their estates, the letters of Bysshe and Timothy Shelley, the diaries of Sarah Hurst, and a series of booklets on the 1844 tithe map and 1813 enclosure map for the Horsham Museum Society. Susan also gives talks and presentations on local history and leads town walks.
