EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Katherine MacFee transports us back to the picturesque countryside of Draycott, Rodney Stoke in Mendip, Somerset. The focal point of this enchanting scene is a charming thatched cottage nestled amidst the rolling hills. Its rustic beauty is further enhanced by the presence of a meticulously crafted thatched haystack perched on staddle stones. The use of staddle stones for hay storage was a common agricultural practice during the 1900s. These carefully arranged stone structures elevated the haystacks off the ground, protecting them from dampness and vermin. This ingenious method ensured that farmers could store their precious harvest safely and efficiently. The photograph beautifully captures the intricate details of both the cottage and haystack. The thatch roof exudes warmth and character while adding an element of timelessness to this idyllic setting. The stack itself stands tall and proud on its sturdy staddle stones, showcasing human ingenuity in harmonious coexistence with nature. Katherine MacFee's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the architectural elements but also invites us to imagine life within these walls during simpler times. It evokes a sense of tranquility and nostalgia as we envision days filled with hard work yet surrounded by natural beauty. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Historic England's collection, we are reminded of our rich rural heritage and how it continues to shape our present-day landscapes.
