Ledge is a monochrome image of Hexham Abbey, captured as the sun set on a summer evening in 2023.
The Abbey is the heart of Hexham. It towers over the marketplace in the centre of town, with all roads seeming to lead to or from it. It was built using a warm local sandstone, and whether or not that choice was down to logistics or design, many hundreds of years later it seems very deliberate. As the light fades on midsummer evenings, it catches on the Abbey’s transcepts and the whole structure seems to glow. Bells ring and pigeons flock, and it’s a beautiful place to spend a minute or two.
