EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the stunning beauty and history of St Albans Abbey in Hertfordshire, England, as seen through the lens of Margaret F Harker in the 1950s. The image showcases the east end of this magnificent medieval abbey church, with its iconic tall towers and intricate stonework, standing proudly against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. The tranquility of the scene is contrasted by the presence of cars parked outside, a reminder of the passage of time and the changing world around this historic site. St Albans Abbey, also known as St Albans Cathedral, is a former abbey church and now the main place of worship in the Anglican Diocese of St Albans. Founded in the 11th century, it is one of the oldest and most architecturally significant churches in the country, with a rich history that spans over 900 years. The abbey was originally built as a monastery and was later transformed into a cathedral during the Reformation. The intricate details of the abbey's architecture are on full display in this photograph, from the ornate carvings on the exterior walls to the stunning stained glass windows that fill the interior with color and light. The east end of the church, where the altar is located, is particularly significant, as it is the direction where worshippers traditionally face during services. Despite the cars parked outside, this photograph captures the essence of St Albans Abbey as a place of spiritual reflection and historical importance, a testament to the enduring power of faith and the beauty of the past.
