St Martins Church, near Canterbury, 1844. Creator: Unknown
St Martins Church, near Canterbury, 1844. Proceeding westward, from the ruins of St. Augustines Monastery, we reached the brow of a hill upon which stands the venerable church of St. Martin-in-the- fields, celebrated as the building in which Queen Bertha is said to have had the service of religion performed to herself and her Christian attendants, by her chaplain Luidhard, before the arrival of the Roman missionary. Here also Augustine first performed mass, and King Ethelbert is said to have worshipped. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of St Martins Church, near Canterbury in 1844. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the scene. As we gaze upon this architectural marvel, we are transported back in time to a bygone era. Situated on a hill overlooking the ruins of St. Augustine's Monastery, St Martins Church holds great historical significance. It is believed to be the very place where Queen Bertha and her Christian attendants received religious services from her chaplain Luidhard before the arrival of Roman missionaries. This sacred ground also witnessed Augustine performing his first mass and King Ethelbert worshipping within its hallowed walls. The engraving featured here was originally published in "Illustrated London News" in 1844, providing readers with a glimpse into Victorian England's rich cultural heritage. The meticulous attention to detail showcased in this print allows us to appreciate the intricate architecture that defines British churches from that period. As we immerse ourselves in this stunning landscape captured by an unknown artist, our hearts are filled with awe for both the craftsmanship displayed within these stone walls and the spiritual history it represents. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring power of religion and its ability to shape communities throughout centuries past.
