EDITORS COMMENTS
The Castle Keep at Lewes, 22 June 1889 captures a mesmerizing glimpse into the rich history and architectural grandeur of East Sussex. This photo print, part of the General Photographic Collection by West Sussex County Council, transports us back to the Victorian era, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. Standing tall within its ancient walls, The Castle Keep dominates the landscape with an imposing presence. Its weathered stones tell tales of battles fought and victories won throughout centuries past. As we peer closer into this remarkable image, statues can be seen nestled within these historic walls - silent witnesses to countless stories that unfolded in their midst. Amidst this awe-inspiring backdrop lies a heartwarming scene: a small boy sitting with his ankles in stocks. Perhaps he is playfully reenacting scenes from times long gone or simply enjoying an innocent moment amidst such storied surroundings. His presence adds an endearing touch to this photograph, reminding us that even amid grandeur and history there is room for youthful joy. This print serves as both a visual feast for architecture enthusiasts and a poignant reminder of our connection to the past. It invites us to reflect on how buildings shape our collective memory and inspire generations yet unborn.
