EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of The Old Friary, located in Friars Lane, Beverley, East Riding Of Yorkshire. Steeped in history and exuding an air of mystery, this medieval friary has been repurposed into a vibrant youth hostel. From the east side perspective, we are treated to a general view that showcases the architectural grandeur and intricate details of this remarkable structure. The image transports us back in time as we imagine the lives of those who once inhabited these hallowed halls. The weathered stone walls bear witness to centuries gone by, while delicate arches and ornate windows hint at the skilled craftsmanship that went into its construction. Now serving as a haven for young adventurers seeking respite from their journeys, The Old Friary stands as a testament to adaptive reuse. It seamlessly blends historical significance with modern functionality, offering shelter and camaraderie to those passing through. Bob Skingle's expert photography skillfully captures both the majesty and intimacy of this unique location. Through his lens, we can almost hear whispers echoing through its corridors – tales of monks' chants reverberating against ancient stones. As we gaze upon this striking image captured by Historic England's talented photographer Bob Skingle, it serves as a reminder that our past is not lost but rather transformed into something new and meaningful.
