EDITORS COMMENTS
Arboe Old Church, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland: A Hauntingly Beautiful Low View of a Derelict Church with Two Men for Scale (circa Early 1900s) This evocative photograph captures the haunting beauty of Arboe Old Church in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. The church, which dates back to the medieval period, stands derelict against a backdrop of rolling hills and a moody sky. The low angle of the image, with its two men for scale, adds a sense of intimacy and vulnerability to the scene. Arboe Old Church, also known as Ardboe Church, is located in the townland of Ardboe, near the shores of Lough Neagh. The church's exact origins are unclear, but it is believed to have been founded in the 12th or 13th century. Over the centuries, it has served as a place of worship for both Protestants and Catholics. By the early 1900s, however, the church had fallen into disrepair. The image of the derelict building, with its crumbling walls and broken windows, speaks to the passage of time and the inexorable march of history. Despite its state of decay, the church remains a powerful symbol of the rich history and cultural heritage of County Tyrone and Northern Ireland as a whole. The photograph, taken circa early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to reflect on the stories and memories that are etched into the fabric of this beautiful and historic place. Today, Arboe Old Church stands as a reminder of the past and a testament to the resilience and enduring spirit of the people of County Tyrone.
