EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative sketch of the greenstone rocks at Birchwood Plantation, near the picturesque village of Copt Oak in Leicestershire, England, was created by the Reverend Baden Powell in 1859. The Reverend, who was the father of the renowned founder of the Scout Movement, Robert Baden-Powell, captured the raw beauty and tranquility of the scene with deft strokes of ink. The plantation, located in the heart of Charnwood Forest, was a popular destination for Victorian tourists seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of urban life. The association between the village of Copt Oak and the Scout Movement is an intriguing one, as the natural surroundings of Charnwood Forest would later inspire Robert Baden-Powell to develop the Scout Movement's ethos of outdoor adventure and self-reliance. The sketch showcases the unique, moss-covered greenstone rocks that are a distinctive feature of the area, their textured surfaces contrasting with the lush greenery of the surrounding vegetation. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 1850s and inviting us to imagine the experiences of those who wandered through the enchanting scenery of Birchwood Plantation.
