EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1905, offering a glimpse into the interior of St Mary's Hospital chapel in Chichester. This medieval hospital, which still stands today, serves as an almshouse and holds within its walls centuries of history and stories waiting to be discovered. The image showcases the remarkable architecture that has withstood the test of time. The intricate details of this 13th-century building are truly awe-inspiring, from the ornate stained glass windows that allow soft rays of light to filter through to the beautifully carved wooden pews that have witnessed countless prayers over the years. As we admire this photograph from the John Fletcher Collection at West Sussex Record Office, we can't help but feel a sense of reverence for those who sought solace within these hallowed halls throughout history. It is a testament to human resilience and faith that this sacred space continues to serve its purpose even after so many centuries have passed. Let us take a moment to appreciate not only the architectural marvel before us but also acknowledge how places like St Mary's Hospital chapel connect us to our past and remind us of our shared humanity. May it continue to stand tall as a symbol of strength and compassion for generations yet unborn.
