EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a piece of history frozen in time. The image showcases the Village Stocks, located in Weston under Redcastle, Shropshire. These rectangular stone posts proudly display their original slots and two late 20th-century planks with four leg holes between them. Standing tall within the church yard, this listed structure serves as a reminder of a bygone era. The Village Stocks were once used as a form of punishment for wrongdoers in the community. Offenders would have their legs restrained within the leg holes, enduring public humiliation and confinement as an act of retribution. Today, these stocks stand disused but hold great historical significance. Photographer Mr W. David Lowe has expertly captured every detail of this unique relic from our past. The weathered stones and worn wooden planks tell tales of countless individuals who faced justice here long ago. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to a time when village life was governed by strict rules and social order was maintained through physical punishment. It serves as both a testament to our progress and a stark reminder of how far society has come since then. This print is not just an artwork; it is an invitation to reflect on our shared heritage and appreciate the strides made towards more humane forms of justice today.
