EDITORS COMMENTS
All Saints Church, Mettingham, Suffolk: A Glance into the Past (circa 1900s) Step inside All Saints Church in the picturesque village of Mettingham, Suffolk, England, and be transported back in time. This photograph, captured in the early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the rich history and architectural beauty of this Anglican place of worship. The interior of the church is bathed in soft, natural light filtering in through the tall, stained-glass windows. The east end of the nave reveals the ten commandments inscribed on the stone wall, with an eagle-eyed figure gazing intently at the sacred text. The altar, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate decorations, stands proudly at the heart of the church. To the right, the pulpit, an essential feature of Anglican churches, is framed by the choir stalls, where the congregation once sat to sing hymns and participate in services. The organ, a symbol of musical tradition, is nestled in the gallery above, its pipes proudly displayed. The pulpit is flanked by two ornate wooden chairs, one for the priest and the other for the reader. At the foot of the pulpit, a lectern, crowned with a magnificent eagle, awaits the scripture readings. The saints, depicted in various forms and sizes, gaze down from the walls, their presence a testament to the deep-rooted faith and devotion of the community. This photograph is a treasure trove of architectural and historical details, offering a unique perspective into the past and the enduring allure of Anglican churches in East Anglia.
