EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Steve Cole showcases the magnificent Thornton Abbey Barbican and Gatehouse in North Lincolnshire. The image captures a mesmerizing view of this medieval entrance from the west, allowing us to marvel at its grandeur and historical significance. The imposing structure stands as a testament to the architectural prowess of the past, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. Its sturdy stone walls, adorned with intricate details, speak volumes about the craftsmanship that went into its construction centuries ago. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era where knights once guarded these gates and weary travelers sought refuge within its protective walls. The gatehouse itself serves as a reminder of the abbey's rich history and importance as both a religious sanctuary and strategic stronghold. Steve Cole's expertly captured image not only preserves this remarkable piece of heritage but also invites us to appreciate its beauty in all its glory. Through his lens, we can almost hear echoes of footsteps echoing through time, reminding us that every brick holds stories waiting to be discovered. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it is an invitation to explore our shared past and immerse ourselves in the wonders that lie within our own backyard.
