EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Cricklade Church, also known as St Sampsons Church, in Wiltshire. The image showcases a general view of this medieval marvel from the south, highlighting its impressive tower that was constructed in the sixteenth century. Interestingly, this architectural gem owes its existence to John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland. However, history tells us that Dudley's involvement in the Lady Jane Grey plot led to his tragic demise at the hands of Mary I in 1553. Despite such a dark chapter associated with its benefactor, Cricklade Church stands tall and proud as a testament to Tudor-era craftsmanship and religious devotion. Photographed by Henry Taunt in 1883, this print not only serves as a visual time capsule but also offers an opportunity for reflection on centuries-old traditions and beliefs. It invites viewers to appreciate the intricate details and grandeur that define medieval churches like Cricklade. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured over a century ago, we are reminded of how our built heritage connects us to our past while shaping our present. This photograph is more than just an artistic representation; it is an invitation to explore history through architecture and delve into stories woven within these sacred spaces.
