Captured in this breathtaking photograph by Alun Bull for Historic England, the Chapel's interior is bathed in the soft, ethereal glow of natural light filtering through the intricately designed stained glass window. The window, a masterpiece of craftsmanship, casts vibrant colors and patterns upon the stone floor and the ornate lectern, creating a mesmerizing scene that speaks to the rich history and spiritual significance of this space. The reflections in the polished surface of the lectern add an extra layer of depth and complexity to the image, inviting the viewer to contemplate the stories and secrets that lie within. Goodrich Castle, a 13th-century fortress, has stood the test of time, bearing witness to the tumultuous history of the region. The Chapel, with its stunning stained glass window, serves as a reminder of the castle's past as a place of worship and refuge.
