Taken by Aerofilms Ltd in the month of June 1933, the image beautifully captures the architectural grandeur and historical significance of this cherished place of worship. The Priory Church of St Mary, a Grade I listed building, stands proudly at the heart of Great Malvern, its distinctive red-tiled roof and intricate stonework visible from this bird's-eye view. The church, with its impressive Gothic Revival architecture, dates back to the 13th century, making it an invaluable piece of local and national heritage. The image also reveals the picturesque landscape that surrounds the church. The rolling hills, lush greenery, and winding roads create a serene and idyllic setting, further emphasizing the charm and allure of this historic town. The Worcester and Malvern Railway line, which can be seen running parallel to the hills in the background, adds a touch of industrial history to the scene. The Priory Church of St Mary has long been a source of inspiration and fascination for both locals and visitors alike. This aerial photograph, taken over eighty years ago, not only provides a glimpse into the past but also serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of this remarkable place. The Priory Church of St Mary continues to be an integral part of the Great Malvern community, drawing visitors from far and wide to explore its rich history and architectural splendor.
