EDITORS COMMENTS
Nestled in the picturesque village of Withyham, Sussex, St Michael and All Angels Church stands proudly, a testament to the rich history and heritage of the region. The church, with its intricate crenellated tower and square base, dates back to the late 13th century, making it a significant medieval structure in the Middle Ages. The church's name, St Michael and All Angels, reflects the belief in the protection of the archangel Michael and all angels. The photograph, taken in the early 19th century, around 1809, captures the beauty and serenity of the church and its surroundings. The lush green grass and tall trees that surround the church add to its idyllic charm. The nearby vicarage, with its red-tiled roof and whitewashed walls, completes the scene of a quintessential English countryside village. The cows grazing in the pasture in the foreground add a sense of rural life to the image. The crenellations on the church tower, a common feature of medieval architecture, are a reminder of the defensive structures that once protected the church and its congregation from invaders. The photograph, taken during the 1800s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of simplicity and beauty. The church, with its enduring presence, continues to be a beloved landmark in Withyham, attracting visitors from far and wide who seek to experience the tranquility and history it embodies.
