EDITORS COMMENTS
Churchyard vandals are destroying Guisborough's historic heritage. This poignant print captures the devastating aftermath of mindless destruction that occurred on the 22nd of March, 1985. The once serene and sacred grounds surrounding Gisborough Priory, an iconic landmark dating back to the Augustinian priory in the 12th century, now lay in ruins. The image portrays a scene of utter desolation as ancient gravestones lie shattered and defaced by red paint sprayed callously across their weathered surfaces. It is a heart-wrenching testament to the disregard for our shared history and cultural legacy. Guisborough, known for its rich historical significance, has been dealt a severe blow by these vandals who have shown no respect for those laid to rest or for this cherished site. Each smashed grave represents not only an individual life but also countless stories untold. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of how fragile our past can be when confronted with acts of senseless vandalism. It calls upon us all to protect and preserve our heritage so that future generations may continue to appreciate its beauty and learn from its lessons. As we gaze upon this haunting image captured by Memory Lane Prints' staff photographer, let it serve as both a warning against such destructive behavior and an inspiration to safeguard our collective memory.
