EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the rustic charm of the Barn and Oast House at Davington Court, Faversham in Kent. The image captures the striking north elevation of these historic buildings, providing a glimpse into their architectural beauty and historical significance. The barn stands tall with its weathered wooden structure, evoking a sense of strength and endurance through time. Its sturdy beams and aged brickwork tell tales of countless harvests stored within its walls, while the large entrance doors hint at a bustling agricultural past. Adjacent to the barn, we find an equally enchanting oast house - a unique structure used for drying hops during the brewing process. Its conical roof is an iconic feature that has become synonymous with Kent's countryside landscape. This particular oast house exudes character with its well-preserved exterior and intricate detailing. The photograph was taken by W. G Prosser in February 1964 as part of National Buildings Record (NBR), capturing not only the physical attributes but also preserving an important moment in history. It serves as a testament to our collective heritage, reminding us of our connection to the land and those who came before us. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how these structures have stood resilient against changing landscapes and societal shifts. It invites us to appreciate their architectural splendor while igniting curiosity about their stories yet untold.
