Glass plate negative of the Abbot’s Lodge Exeter
This image records the exterior of an ornate house called Abbot’s Lodge which used to stand in Exeter’s Cathedral Close but was destroyed during the Blitz. The image is captured on a glass plate negative and has been digitally inverted to a positive image, as it would have appeared if printed as a photograph. It is part of a set of photographic images recording historic buildings in Exeter, but there is no record of the photographer’s name or the date the images were taken.
