EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Tudor wing of Beeleigh Abbey, located near Maldon in Essex. The abbey, originally founded by the White Canons in 1180, holds a rich history that dates back centuries. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1540, King Henry VIII granted the abbey and its vast lands to Sir John Gate, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster. The photograph showcases the exquisite architecture of this 16th-century building, with its timber-framed structure standing proudly against a backdrop of lush nature. The ivy gracefully adorns the walls, adding an enchanting touch to this medieval masterpiece. Its religious significance is evident as it served as a place for worship and contemplation throughout history. Captured during the early decades of the 20th century by RE Thomas, this monochrome image exudes a sense of timelessness and tranquility. It was featured in Hutchinsons Britain Beautiful, edited by Walter Hutchinson. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, we are transported back to a different era - one filled with reverence for heritage and architectural marvels. This photograph serves as a testament to both human craftsmanship and nature's enduring beauty.
