EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 9th of December 1974 at St Peters Church in Wooten Wawen. The image captures an archaeological dig led by Mrs Heather Barrie, the dedicated dig director. With her sleeves rolled up and a determined expression on her face, she delicately cleans one of the ancient skeletons discovered during the excavation. This snapshot takes us deep into history as we witness a momentous discovery unfold. The church itself stands proudly in the background, representing centuries of Anglo-Saxon heritage. As our eyes wander through the frame, we can almost feel ourselves standing alongside these passionate archaeologists who tirelessly uncover fragments of our past. The trench they have dug serves as a portal to another era—a time when Warwickshire was alive with stories waiting to be unearthed. Each layer reveals secrets that connect us to those who came before us, reminding us of their existence and leaving us with an insatiable curiosity about their lives. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time, it is impossible not to appreciate the dedication and expertise required for such meticulous work. This photograph pays homage not only to Mrs Heather Barrie but also to all historians and archaeologists who dedicate their lives to preserving our rich historical tapestry. Memory Lane Prints has once again captured an extraordinary moment that invites us all to reflect on our shared human journey through time.
