EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the beauty and tranquility of St. Mary the Virgin Church in Feltham, Middlesex, England, as it stood in 1914. The image transports us back in time to the early 20th century, with its intricate details and timeless charm. The church, surrounded by lush greenery, is framed by a stunning lychgate, a traditional English feature found at the entrance of many rural churches. The lychgate, also known as a lichgate, lycugate, or lyke gate, is a structure where the body of the deceased was laid before being taken to the church for burial. This one, with its intricately carved wooden doors and delicate stonework, is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the past. The church itself, with its tall, Gothic-style spire, stands proudly against the backdrop of the rolling English countryside. The large, arched windows allow the sunlight to filter in, casting a warm, inviting glow over the stone walls. The image also reveals a few hints of the surrounding community, with a few houses and trees visible in the background. St. Mary the Virgin Church, with its historic lychgate, is a reminder of the rich history and tradition of the English countryside. This photograph, taken in 1914, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to reflect on the beauty and significance of this cherished place of worship.
