From the roof of HT in 1974

In 2017 we received an email with an amazing image by the photographer William Perry. I’ve just updated the link to the new location to view this rooftop view from HT in 1974. It can’t be embedded here, but it’s worth a visit.

William says:

I walked into the church with a 4×5 camera, big tripod and a couple dozen 4×5 negative cartridges, maybe 50 pounds and asked “Can I go up on the roof to take some photos” and someone took me to the staircase in the turret up to the edge of the roof and I dragged the equipment up to the peak.

[Note to any contemporary roof climbers: sorry, no. It’s not 1974]
