EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Reverend William Gostling (1696-1777): An English Churchman and Antiquary at Canterbury Cathedral William Gostling (1696-1777) was an English churchman, minor canon, and antiquary, whose life and work intertwined with the rich history of Canterbury Cathedral during the late 17th and 18th centuries. This evocative image captures the scholarly and pious spirit of Gostling, as he is depicted in his ecclesiastical robes, surrounded by the hallowed grounds of the ancient cathedral. Born in 1696, Gostling was educated at the University of Cambridge and was ordained as a deacon in the Church of England in 1721. He became a minor canon at Canterbury Cathedral in 1723, a position he held for over five decades. In this role, he played an integral part in the daily services and rituals of the cathedral, while also dedicating his spare time to the study of its history and antiquities. Gostling's passion for history and archaeology led him to become a respected antiquary. He meticulously documented the cathedral's architectural features, artifacts, and historical records, contributing significantly to the understanding of its rich past. His research was published in various scholarly works, including "A Description of Canterbury Cathedral," which remains an essential resource for historians and researchers today. This photograph, taken from a print by Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the life of a dedicated and scholarly churchman who devoted his life to the preservation and study of Canterbury Cathedral's history. Gostling's legacy continues to inspire and inform our understanding of the cathedral's past, as well as the importance of preserving historical records for future generations.
