EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of an ancient yew tree standing proudly in the churchyard of Aldworth, Berkshire. Believed to be over a millennium old, this magnificent specimen has witnessed centuries of history unfold within its gnarled branches. In 1976, tragedy struck when a fierce storm uprooted this venerable giant from its earthly home. However, nature's resilience prevailed as a small portion of the old root managed to survive and sprout new growth. This remarkable display of tenacity is beautifully captured by Henry Taunt in his 1895 photograph. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the sheer grandeur and enduring spirit embodied by this ancient yew tree. Its weathered trunk stands as a testament to the passage of time and serves as a silent witness to countless generations who have sought solace under its protective canopy. Taunt's skillful composition draws our attention not only to the majestic presence of the tree but also highlights the serene atmosphere that envelops it within Aldworth's historic graveyard. The juxtaposition between life and death is palpable; where tombstones serve as reminders of mortality while nature triumphantly persists. As we gaze upon this evocative print, we are reminded that even in moments of destruction, there is always hope for regeneration and renewal. The yew tree at Aldworth continues to inspire awe with each passing year – an enduring symbol of strength amidst adversity and an indomitable force deeply rooted in
