EDITORS COMMENTS
Stoneland, Buckhurst Park, near Withyham, Sussex (1809): A Glimpse into the Past Nestled in the heart of the picturesque Sussex countryside, Stoneland at Buckhurst Park in Withyham, stands as a testament to the rich history and architectural beauty of the region. Dating back to the early 17th century, this magnificent building is a significant part of the Buckhurst Estate, which has its roots in the 11th century. The image captured in this photograph, taken in 1809, offers a captivating glimpse into the past. The Stoneland building, with its crenellated gables and jacobean architecture, exudes an air of grandeur and elegance. The grassy landscape, dotted with trees, adds to the serene and idyllic setting. The crenellations, a defensive feature common in medieval architecture, were once used to protect the estate from potential invaders. However, by the 17th century, they had become more of a decorative element than a practical one. The gables, with their intricate designs, are a hallmark of the Jacobean architectural style, which was popular during the reign of King James I. The Buckhurst Estate, with its long and storied history, is a true treasure of Sussex heritage. This photograph, taken over two centuries ago, provides a fascinating window into the past and serves as a reminder of the beauty and richness of our historical and architectural heritage.
