EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting interior of the south range at Beverston Castle in Gloucestershire. Taken by an anonymous English photographer from the 20th century, this image is a testament to their skill in capturing the essence of historical architecture. The medieval stone fortress stands proudly, its walls whispering tales of centuries past. In this particular corner, we find ourselves immersed in a cozy sitting room adorned with c17th century architectural details. The centerpiece is an exquisite fireplace that commands attention with its grandeur and intricate craftsmanship. As our gaze wanders around the room, we notice a hearth invitingly crackling with warmth, casting dancing shadows on the ancient stone floor. It's easy to imagine noble lords and ladies gathering here for intimate conversations or moments of respite from their duties. Beverston Castle has witnessed countless stories unfold within its storied walls since it was founded by Maurice de Gaunt in 1229. Over time, it was expanded upon by Thomas, Lord Berkeley during the early 14th century before being further enhanced by the Hicks family in the 17th century. Though damaged by fire in 1691, this remarkable structure was lovingly restored soon after – preserving its rich history for generations to come. This evocative photograph serves as a visual reminder of both past glory and enduring resilience.
