EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Lyddington Bede House, located in Leicestershire. The image captures the exquisite exterior view of the house and church, both steeped in rich history. Originally part of a palace owned by the Bishops of Lincoln during the late medieval period, this building underwent a transformation by 1600. It was converted into an almshouse to provide shelter for twelve impoverished bedesmen over 30 years old and two women over 45. The residents were carefully selected based on specific criteria: they had to be free from lunacy, leprosy, and the French pox (a term used to refer to syphilis at that time). This unique establishment served as a safe haven for those who met these qualifications. Surrounded by a serene medieval graveyard and adjacent to a charming church, this site is not only historically significant but also holds great religious importance. The print beautifully captures the essence of this place where faith intertwines with history. Preserved by Historic England Photo Library, this image offers us a glimpse into an era long gone yet still present through architectural marvels like Lyddington Bede House. Its significance lies not only in its historical value but also in its ability to transport us back in time and evoke emotions associated with religion and spirituality.
