Herstmonceux Castle, East Sussex. The ivy-clad entrance gatehouse. Herstmonceux Castle was built of brick circa 1445 by Sir Roger Fiennes. It was largely dismantled in 1777 and remained an ivy-clad ruin until the early 20th century when a major restoration programme was carried out. It housed the Royal Observatory for a time in the late 20th century. Photographed in the 1920s by Nathaniel Lloyd

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of Herstmonceux Castle in East Sussex. The focal point of the image is the ivy-clad entrance gatehouse, which exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. Built around 1445 by Sir Roger Fiennes, this medieval castle was constructed using brick, showcasing its historical significance. The photograph transports us back to the 1920s when it was taken by Nathaniel Lloyd, offering a glimpse into a time long gone. At that period, Herstmonceux Castle had endured years of neglect and stood as a haunting ruin covered in ivy. However, its fate changed in the early 20th century when an extensive restoration project breathed new life into its ancient walls. It is worth noting that this castle also played host to the Royal Observatory for some time during the late 20th century—a testament to its versatility and adaptability throughout history. Nathaniel Lloyd's skillful composition allows us to appreciate both the architectural grandeur and natural elements surrounding Herstmonceux Castle. The lush greenery intertwining with weathered stone creates a picturesque scene that evokes feelings of nostalgia and wonder. This print serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and showcases how dedication can revive even the most dilapidated structures. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and preservation efforts that have allowed future generations to experience this magnificent piece of history firsthand.
