EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the front door into the hall of Belhus, Essex, a lost treasure from England's architectural history. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is a print from Giles Worsley's renowned book "England's Lost Houses" published in 2002. Belhus was originally built for John Barrett in the early 16th century but underwent significant remodeling between 1744 and 1777 by Thomas Lennard Barrett, Lord Dacre. The Gothic Revival style can be seen throughout its design. The entrance to the hall showcases exquisite Flemish early Renaissance woodwork that adds an air of grandeur and sophistication. Photographed in 1920, this magnificent doorway reveals intricate carved wood paneling that speaks volumes about Tudor architecture. In addition to its architectural beauty, notable features such as greatboots (a type of armor) and Cromwellian armor add historical significance to this scene. Sadly, Belhus met its demise when it was demolished in 1957. However, through photographs like these preserved prints from "England's Lost Houses" we are able to appreciate and remember these remarkable structures that have been lost over time. This photograph serves as a testament to the rich heritage of British architecture while also reminding us of the importance of preserving our cultural treasures for future generations.
