Capturing the Serenity of St John the Evangelist Church, Bury - A Glimpse into History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This timeless print transports us back to a tranquil spring day on April 27,1948. The image beautifully showcases the picturesque St John the Evangelist Church in Bury, West Sussex. As we follow the path leading towards this Anglican parish, our eyes are drawn to its magnificent tower dating back to the 12th century. Adorned with cedar shingles, its spire gracefully pierces through the sky. The church's idyllic location by the flowing river Arun adds an enchanting touch to this scene. In days gone by, a passenger ferry once connected Bury with Amberley on the east bank of this serene waterway. Just imagine rowing across these gentle currents while admiring nature's beauty. In perfect harmony with its rural surroundings, a small boat gently rests in the foreground of this photograph. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when life moved at a slower pace and moments like these were cherished. Preserved within George Garland's remarkable collection at West Sussex Record Office, this image offers us a glimpse into history – capturing not only architectural grandeur but also evoking feelings of peace and spirituality that have resonated within these hallowed walls for centuries.
