EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to August 1924 with this print of Abbey Park, Cirencester. The image showcases the magnificent Norman Arch nestled within the serene Abbey Grounds Park in Gloucestershire. Covered in a lush blanket of ivy, the walls of this 12th-century arch exude an air of ancient grandeur. In this snapshot from history, two young boys steal a moment to gaze at the camera, their curiosity and innocence beautifully captured. Their presence adds a touch of life to the timeless scene, reminding us that even centuries-old structures can still captivate and inspire new generations. The Norman Arch holds great significance as it stands as Cirencester's oldest building and is the sole survivor from Cirencester Abbey. Its enduring existence serves as a testament to the rich history and architectural prowess of bygone eras. Transport yourself back to those balmy days of summer in 1924 when visitors would have strolled through these very grounds, seeking respite amidst nature's beauty. This evocative print not only offers a glimpse into our past but also celebrates the charm and allure that continue to make Abbey Park an enchanting destination for all who visit.
