EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the South loggia on the Troco Terrace, Bramshill, as featured in 'The English Country House'. The image was captured by an anonymous 20th-century English photographer. Built by Edward Zouche, the 11th Baron Zouche of Harringworth, this magnificent architectural masterpiece was completed in 1612. The troco terrace itself holds historical significance as it was once used for a precursor to croquet known as troco or lawn billiards. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of Jacobean architecture with its grand exterior adorned with arches and balustrades. The intricate details of the balustrade are highlighted, showcasing skilled craftsmanship from the 17th century. Transporting us back in time to circa 1600s, this early seventeenth-century gem stands tall against time's passage. Its presence evokes a sense of awe and wonder at how such structures have endured through centuries. Intriguingly framed within this snapshot is a player engaged in one of these historic games. It serves as a reminder that even amidst grandeur and opulence, leisure activities were enjoyed by those who resided within these stately homes. This remarkable photograph not only captures architectural beauty but also offers us a glimpse into history - an exquisite piece that truly encapsulates the charm and allure of seventeenth-century England.
