A view of Lanherne Convent taken from the main entrance gate, with the tower of St Mawgan in Pydar Parish Church just visible over the trees on the right hand side. There is also a large glass house in front of the building on the right. Lanherne was formerly the Manor House of the Arundell family and home of the prominent Catholic Sir John Arundell in the 16th century. It became a place of refuge for many priests during the Reformation. In 1794 the manor was given to the Carmelite nuns and still runs as a convent. Photographer: John Charles Burrow

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1906, capturing the serene beauty of Lanherne Convent in St Mawgan in Pydar, Cornwall. The image showcases a view of the convent taken from its main entrance gate, offering a glimpse into its rich history and architectural grandeur. In this snapshot, we can see the imposing tower of St Mawgan in Pydar Parish Church peering over the trees on the right-hand side. It adds an air of spirituality to this already tranquil scene. On closer inspection, there is also a large glass house situated in front of the building on the right, perhaps used for cultivating plants or as a place for contemplation. Lanherne Convent holds great historical significance as it was once the Manor House of the Arundell family and served as home to Sir John Arundell during the 16th century. During times of religious upheaval such as Reformation, it became a sanctuary for numerous priests seeking refuge. Since 1794, this remarkable estate has been under Carmelite nun ownership and continues to function as a convent today. This photograph by John Charles Burrow not only captures an exquisite moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Cornwall's deep-rooted religious heritage.
