More on the Mayflower Barn

The back of William Penn’s grave and the holly were taken in Old Jordans. The images of Dr. Irving and myself were taken on the campus of the University of London in the same week in March 2001.
Thanks Dr. Andrew Irving!
For sale: Old Jordans and the Mayflower barn – preview
After nearly 100 years of Quaker ownership, the Old Jordans hotel and conference centre has been put on the market.
The sale package also includes the stable block, which was recently converted into a modern refectory, and the beautiful and historic Mayflower barn, reputedly built from the timbers of the ship that took the Pilgrim Fathers to the New World. The whole complex is expected to sell for around £2.5 million.
The property has been a part of Quaker life since as early as 1659 when William Russell, the owner of the land and a local farmer, held the first Quaker Meetings in the area. Also present at many of these early Meetings were George Fox, James Nayler and William Penn. The buildings passed out of Quaker ownership in 1738 but were reacquired in 1910 in a derelict state and converted into the guest house as we know it today.

This is one of the first photos I took during a lunch hour excursion after taking my first job downtown. The man at the near end of the bench in the center inspired a brief “Alone in a Crowd” theme. – Pete Anderson
Pete- I think this is my favorite shot of yours so far!
I’ve since learned from Pete that this image has been used for the cover of the book South Loop Review (and I received a copy in the mail). Thanks Pete!
