Established in the late 19th century, this orphanage, also known as Hallam Hall, provided a safe and nurturing environment for countless young girls who found themselves without family or support. The photograph captures the striking beauty of St. Edith's Home, with its red-brick facade, tall chimneys, and sprawling grounds that overlook the Bristol Channel.
