Alex Sanders at the altar with a coven member, Chantry Cottage, 8 May 1974

Photograph, 8 May 1974. Alex Sanders kneels in a dark robe at the altar in the temple at Chantry Cottage, holding the hands of a young woman in white who stands behind him, her face turned away. The altar stands in front of the fireplace, as it did until the following year, spread with a candle in a dish, a bowl, a dagger set upright, a white cord and a scourge, and a jug of greenery and flowers at the left. Incense smoke rises past the chimney breast. A bookcase and a stove fill the right and lower edges of the frame. Bexhill Museum item 058.
