This England Magazine Spring 2023 Retour à l'édition précédente

We have a cheery spring issue that tells the many stories of people getting on with things that they do really well – a gratifying source of inspiration. We take you to Cornwall where Britain’s first tea plantation was set up just before the millennium.

We meet Clare Barnett, who is enjoying a healthy growth in demand for her hand-made saddles as more people are reverting to this traditional way to ride. Also keeping tradition alive is George Jackson plasterwork, which has been designing and making ornate decoration in plaster for some of our most impressive buildings for more than two centuries now.

Paul James outlines what we can expect on coronation day in May, and where it might differ from coronations of the past, and he has written a fascinating profile of Charles III.

We have plenty more, too, from Mairi Hughes’s travel feature on York to the fascinating story of Fanny Cornforth, long-term muse of Rossetti, whose work will be on display at a blockbuster exhibition at the Tate Britain this spring. Chris Franks visits the world’s oldest wooden church in Essex, and we have some very enticing gardens to visit...

PLUS all our regular features.
