Elswyth

From Elswyth, my ongoing exploration of place, time, and the marks people leave behind.

The streets of Chepstow carry centuries beneath their surface – footsteps worn into stone, names set into brick, stories pressed into mortar. I’m drawn to how the ordinary becomes enduring here – how a single carved date can hold both presence and passing in the same breath.

Centuries of footsteps on the streets of Chepstow.
