EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph, we witness a solemn moment in history as the Rood screen at Blackawton church is carefully prepared for dismantling. It is November 1943, amidst the chaos of World War II, and the village has been ordered to evacuate for safety reasons. As Operation Overlord looms on the horizon, tensions are high on the home front. The Rood screen, an exquisite piece of religious artistry dating back centuries, stands tall and majestic against the backdrop of uncertainty. Its intricate carvings depict scenes from biblical narratives that have offered solace to generations of worshippers. Now, however, it must be disassembled with utmost care and stored away in a secure location until peace returns. This image captures not only the physical act of preservation but also symbolizes a community's resilience in times of conflict. The dedication shown by those involved reflects their determination to protect their heritage amidst turmoil. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, let us remember that even during dark days when war raged across continents, humanity's commitment to preserving cultural treasures remained steadfast. This photograph serves as a reminder that while wars may disrupt our lives temporarily, they cannot extinguish our spirit or erode our reverence for what truly matters – our shared history and collective identity.
