EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of a cross that proudly stands on the historic grounds of Ruyton, Shropshire. The cross itself is a testament to the rich heritage and ancient significance of this manor and borough. With its gothic design and intricate finial, it exudes an air of grandeur that commands attention. Crafted from sandstone ashlar, this listed monument has withstood the test of time, preserving its remarkable features for generations to come. Its weathered facade tells stories untold, whispering secrets from centuries past. Mr Myk Briggs LRPS skillfully captures every detail in this photograph, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the physical attributes but also the emotional weight carried by such a significant landmark. Through his lens, we are transported back in time as we contemplate the lives lived within these walls and reflect upon their impact on our present-day existence. As we gaze at this image, let us remember that history is not merely confined within textbooks; it lives among us in tangible forms like this magnificent cross. It serves as a reminder that our roots run deep and should be cherished and protected for future generations. Let Mr Myk Briggs' artistry inspire us to explore our own surroundings with fresh eyes – seeking out hidden gems like this one – so that we may continue to celebrate and preserve our shared cultural heritage.
