Ruins of Glastonbury Abbey in Somerset. The thorn tree. 22nd September 1966
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time and immerse yourself in the captivating history of Glastonbury Abbey with this stunning print from Memory Lane Prints. Transporting us to a crisp autumn day on the 22nd of September, 1966, we are greeted by the hauntingly beautiful ruins that have stood for centuries. At the heart of this enchanting image stands a majestic thorn tree, its branches reaching towards the heavens as if whispering tales of ancient legends and forgotten rituals. This iconic symbol has long been associated with Glastonbury's rich folklore, believed to be descended from Joseph of Arimathea's staff planted here over two thousand years ago. The Grade I listed building itself exudes an air of mystery and reverence, once home to Benedictine monks who dedicated their lives to prayer and contemplation within these hallowed walls. Now reduced to crumbling remnants, these ruins serve as a poignant reminder of the abbey's former glory. As we gaze upon this photograph, our imaginations run wild with visions of medieval pilgrims seeking solace or perhaps even miracles amidst these sacred grounds. It is impossible not to feel a sense of awe at witnessing such historical significance frozen in time. Whether you are a history enthusiast or simply appreciate the beauty found within decayed grandeur, this print captures both the ethereal charm and enduring allure that make Glastonbury Abbey
