ABOUT THIS PHOTOGRAPH

Shown here is Timothy O'Sullivan's photograph of the town in the weeks after the Union's retreat. The spires of the Historic Courthouse, Presbyterian Church and St George's Episcopal Church can be seen in the background and are still standing today. – Jordan J. Lloyd

Update on U.S. Orders
We're pausing US shipping from 18 August 2025 while we update our checkout.
Due to a U.S. government executive order, all UK to U.S. shipments will soon be subject to additional tariffs, effective 29 August 2025. While the exact amount isn’t confirmed, we expect it to be around 10% of the item value or a flat $80 per item if duties aren’t paid.
As a small business, we need time to assess the impact and ensure we protect both ourselves and our customers. The USA is our second-largest market after the UK, and although we’re confident this will be resolved soon, we are temporarily halting U.S. sales.
