EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the serene village of Alveston near Stratford in the 1960s. Standing proudly amidst a picturesque countryside, we are presented with the solemn remains of what was once a magnificent Norman church. The plain brick chancel is all that has survived the test of time, serving as a poignant reminder of the rich history and religious significance this place held. As our gaze wanders through the image, we cannot help but notice another architectural gem adjacent to the chancel. It is none other than the old 14th century Rectory, standing tall and exuding an air of elegance. Its presence adds depth and character to this rural landscape, showcasing how harmoniously buildings from different eras can coexist. The photograph transports us back to October 20th, 1961—a moment frozen in time where tranquility reigns supreme. We can almost feel ourselves stepping into this idyllic scene; perhaps hearing whispers carried by gentle breezes or feeling rays of sunlight warming our skin. In capturing this snapshot of Alveston's past, Mirrorpix invites us to reflect on how communities evolve while preserving fragments of their heritage. This image serves as a testament to both human ingenuity in constructing such remarkable structures and nature's ability to reclaim its dominion over time. Let us cherish these glimpses into history—reminders that even remnants have stories worth telling—and be grateful for those who preserve them so we may continue appreciating their beauty
