Bristol Channel Lundy Puffin Stamp
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the charming scene of The Hotel and St. Mary's Church on Lundy Island in the Bristol Channel, circa 1938. Lundy Island, located at the mouth of the Bristol Channel in the English Atlantic, is renowned for its unique character and natural beauty. The island's quaint buildings, including The Hotel and St. Mary's Church, have remained largely unchanged for centuries, offering visitors a glimpse into the past. The Hotel, with its distinctive red-roofed facade and whitewashed walls, stands proudly at the heart of the village, welcoming guests from near and far. The Church, with its tall, square tower and intricately carved wooden door, is a testament to the island's rich history and religious heritage. The church, dedicated to St. Mary, has served the small community of Lundy Island for over 800 years. The photograph also reveals a few signs of the island's unique inhabitants, including the distinctive silhouette of a puffin perched on a nearby cliff. Lundy Island is home to one of the largest puffin colonies in the UK, attracting birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts from around the world. This photograph is not only a beautiful record of a bygone era but also a reminder of the enduring charm and natural beauty of Lundy Island. The Hotel and Church continue to welcome visitors to this day, offering a unique and unforgettable experience in a truly special place.
