EDITORS COMMENTS
Stapleton Towers, Annan: A Haven for Orphaned Children During Wartime This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and tranquility of Stapleton Towers near Annan, Dumfriesshire, in Scotland, during the early 1920s. At the time, this magnificent country house served as one of the wartime evacuation centers established by Barnardos, a leading children's charity in the United Kingdom. The image portrays a group of children, dressed in their best clothes, gathered in the spacious grounds of Stapleton Towers. Their joyful expressions and playful antics belie the hardships they had endured, having been orphaned or separated from their families due to the tumultuous events of the war. Barnardos, a pioneering organization dedicated to children's welfare, recognized the importance of providing a safe and nurturing environment for these vulnerable youngsters. By establishing evacuation centers in large country houses like Stapleton Towers, they offered these children a chance to heal, learn, and grow in a supportive community. The children at Stapleton Towers were provided with education, food, clothing, and a sense of belonging. They were encouraged to engage in various activities, both indoor and outdoor, to foster their physical, emotional, and intellectual development. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the crucial role that charities like Barnardos played in the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children during times of crisis. It also serves as a testament to the resilience and determination of these children, who, despite their hardships, managed to find joy and hope in the midst of adversity.
