EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the staircase in Beverston Castle, Gloucestershire. Taken from 'Country Houses of the Cotswolds' by an English Photographer, this image showcases the remarkable architecture and historical significance of this medieval stone fortress. The staircase, dating back to the 17th century, stands as a testament to both its original construction and subsequent restoration after a devastating fire in 1691. Its oak balusters add a touch of elegance to the sturdy structure, while the vaulted ceiling above creates an atmosphere of awe-inspiring beauty. As you gaze at this print, you can almost imagine yourself stepping back in time and ascending these very steps. The half-timbered walls surrounding the staircase exude a sense of warmth and charm that is characteristic of c17th architecture. Beverston Castle itself has a rich history; founded by Maurice de Gaunt in 1229 and later expanded upon by Thomas, Lord Berkeley. It has witnessed centuries pass by within its walls and continues to stand as a symbol of strength and resilience. This photograph not only captures architectural details but also tells a story - one that speaks volumes about our past. With every glance at this image, you are transported into another era where castles were fortresses filled with tales waiting to be discovered.
