EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Mount Grace Priory in Northallerton, North Yorkshire, comes alive with a serene and enchanting beauty. The image, taken from the north west, showcases the Manor House nestled amongst the ruins of the Carthusian monastery. The Manor House, a stunning architectural marvel, was built in 1654 by Thomas Lascelles, replacing the monastery that once stood there. The reflection on the garden pond in the foreground adds an extra layer of allure to the scene. The still waters mirror the intricate details of the Manor House, creating a mesmerizing effect. The tranquility of the pond is a stark contrast to the rich history that surrounds it. This photograph holds a special significance as the Manor House underwent a major refurbishment and expansion between 1900-01, carried out by Sir Lowthian Bell. Sir Lowthian Bell was the grandfather of the renowned explorer, archaeologist, and diplomat, Gertrude Bell (1868-1926). The Arts and Crafts interiors of the Manor House, some of which have recently been restored by English Heritage, bear testament to Sir Lowthian Bell's vision and the enduring appeal of the English country estate. Mount Grace Priory stands as a symbol of the past, a testament to the rich history of England, and a reminder of the beauty that lies in preserving our heritage. This photograph captures the essence of that history, the tranquility of the gardens, and the timeless allure of the Manor House.
