Title: "Berry Pomeroy Castle, Totnes, Devon: A Glimpse into the Past" Berry Pomeroy Castle, nestled in the lush green hills of Totnes, Devon, stands as a testament to the rich history and grandeur of England's Victorian and Edwardian eras. This photograph, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time, offering a rare and vintage perspective of this enchanting castle. The image, bathed in the soft, warm glow of a lantern, reveals Berry Pomeroy Castle in all its early 20th-century splendor. The castle, shrouded in ivy and moss, exudes an aura of mystery and intrigue, its turrets and battlements reaching out towards the heavens. The surrounding landscape, dotted with trees and rolling hills, adds to the serene and picturesque setting. Berry Pomeroy Castle, a 15th-century fortress, has a fascinating history steeped in legend and lore. Its most famous tale involves the tragic love story of Lady Pomeroy and Sir Francis Drake. According to the legend, Lady Pomeroy, heartbroken over Sir Francis Drake's departure to the New World, locked herself away in the castle, vowing never to see another man. She is said to have died there, still in her chamber, with her heart having turned to stone. This photograph, with its timeless charm and intriguing history, invites us to explore the stories and secrets that lie within the walls of Berry Pomeroy Castle. It is a beautiful reminder of the past, a piece of history that continues to captivate and inspire us.
