EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Mow Cop Castle, standing proudly atop a hill in Cheshire East. Dating back to 1754, this Georgian folly was originally constructed by Randle Wilbraham as an extravagant summer house. Over time, it has transformed into a beloved ruin that serves as both a landmark and boundary marker between Cheshire and Staffordshire. The image captures the castle from its northwest side, offering a unique perspective of its grandeur against the backdrop of rolling hills and dramatic clouds. The weathered stone walls tell tales of centuries past, evoking a sense of mystery and nostalgia. Mow Cop Castle's architectural beauty is enhanced by its strategic location on high ground, providing panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Its significance lies not only in its historical importance but also in its geological features that have shaped the landscape over time. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph taken between 1920-1935 by J Dixon Scott, we are transported back to an era when this enchanting structure served as a sanctuary for leisurely summer retreats. It stands today as a testament to human creativity and resilience against the passage of time.
