EDITORS COMMENTS
Bayham Abbey, Kent and Sussex Borders, England, Circa 1830s: A Monastery Steeped in History and Tradition Nestled on the picturesque Kent and Sussex borders, Bayham Abbey stands as a testament to the rich history and spiritual heritage of England. Founded by Robert Thornham in the early 12th century, this Premonstratensian monastery has been a significant landmark for over 900 years. In this evocative 1830s photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library, we see a group of tourists and sightseers gathered in front of the abbey, dressed in the fashion of the era. The men wear tailored coats, waistcoats, and cravats, while the women don elegant dresses and bonnets. The scene is one of leisure and curiosity, as the visitors take in the beauty and history of this ancient monastery. Bayham Abbey was founded in the late 11th or early 12th century, making it one of the earliest monasteries in England. The Premonstratensian order, also known as the White Canons, was founded in France in 1120 and emphasized a simple, austere lifestyle. The abbey's ruins, which include the nave, choir, and parts of the cloisters, offer a glimpse into the past and the monastic life of the Middle Ages. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time, imagining the daily life of the monks who once called Bayham Abbey home. We can almost hear the sound of their chanting and the clanging of the bells, as they went about their spiritual and agricultural duties. Today, Bayham Abbey continues to draw visitors from around the world, who come to marvel at its history and beauty, and to connect with the spiritual traditions that have endured for centuries.
