EDITORS COMMENTS
Morden College: A Haven of Compassion and History (circa 1700) Nestled amidst the picturesque landscape of Blackheath, London, stands Morden College, an architectural gem that tells a compelling story of compassion and history. Founded in 1695 by Sir John Morden, a successful Turkey merchant, the college was built as a charitable institution to provide a home for decayed merchants and people in unfortunate circumstances. Sir John, a man of great vision and benevolence, saw the need to establish a place where those in need could find refuge and support. The construction of the college began around 1700, and the resulting structure is a testament to the architectural elegance of the time. With its grand facade and intricate details, Morden College is a sight to behold. The college's history is deeply rooted in the rich tapestry of England's past. Over the centuries, it has served as a school, a workhouse, and a retirement home for the elderly. Despite the various transformations, its primary mission of providing a home for those in need has remained unchanged. This image, taken in 1835, offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the timeless beauty and enduring spirit of Morden College. The grandeur of the building stands in stark contrast to the simplicity of the surrounding landscape, highlighting the juxtaposition of history and the present. As we marvel at the architectural splendor of Morden College, we are reminded of the compassionate vision of its founder, Sir John Morden, and the enduring legacy of care and support that continues to this day. The college remains a beacon of hope and a testament to the power of compassion and generosity.
