EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Aston Hall Gateway in Birmingham, taken by George Bernard Mason in 1941. The image showcases the grandeur of this Jacobean country house's entrance, with its magnificent archway and gate lodges standing proudly against the backdrop of Aston Park. In the distance, one can glimpse the towering presence of St Peter and St Pauls Church, adding a touch of religious significance to this architectural marvel. However, as time passed, progress brought about change that was not always kind to our historical treasures. Sadly, this gateway and its accompanying lodges met their demise sometime between the late 1960s and early 1970s when they were demolished. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of their existence before their unfortunate destruction. The disappearance of such significant landmarks raises questions about preservation and appreciation for our heritage. It prompts us to reflect on how society values history amidst rapid development. As we admire this image today, let it serve as a testament to both what once stood proudly at Aston Hall Gateway and also as a call for greater efforts towards protecting our cultural legacy.
