EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning vintage print captures the timeless beauty of Church in the Wood, officially known as St Leonard's Church, located in Hollington, Sussex. Dating back to the 13th century, this medieval church is steeped in history and heritage.
The image showcases the picturesque churchyard with its ancient cross and weathered headstones, serving as a poignant reminder of lives past. The ivy-clad walls of the church and towering trees surrounding it create a sense of serenity and tranquility.
The postcard from the 1910s transports us back in time to a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages may have passed through these grounds. The architecture of St Leonard's Church is truly awe-inspiring, with its Gothic features standing tall against the backdrop of nature.
As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are reminded of the inevitability of death and burial – themes that have been explored throughout centuries within these sacred walls. The John Barrett Collection has captured not just an image but a piece of history preserved for future generations to admire.
This print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of St Leonard's Church and its significance within the community of Hastings. It is a visual treasure trove that invites us to reflect on our own mortality while appreciating the beauty that surrounds us.
