EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Sindercombes Cottage, a historical gem nestled in the heart of Shepherds Bush, Hammersmith, London. Dating back to the 17th century, this quaint cottage holds an intriguing past that echoes through time. Legend has it that Miles Sindercombe and his co-conspirators sought refuge within these very walls during their audacious plot to assassinate Oliver Cromwell in 1657. Steeped in secrecy and intrigue, this humble abode witnessed clandestine meetings and whispered conversations that would forever shape British history. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era with its charming exterior adorned with colorful flowers. The artist's skillful use of watercolors transports us back to the bustling streets of 19th-century London, where this picturesque cottage stood as a testament to centuries gone by. Sadly, Sindercombes Cottage met its demise in 1892 when it was demolished. However, thanks to this remarkable image preserved by John Crowther and housed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, we can still marvel at its beauty today. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the rich heritage embedded within Britain's architectural treasures. This evocative piece serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and significance of our past – a window into an era long gone but never forgotten.
