Walpole St Peter\u2019s.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve been having a spate of \u2018two church\u2019 days. Which is great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I keep passing this magnificent edifice, at Walpole St Peter\u2019s. Most times I\u2019m unable to stop. Today, however, I stopped and had a little wander around the back end. Where there\u2019s this odd little underpass, or passage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The keen eye might also spot metal rings mounted in the walls on the right hand side. No idea what they might have been for? One automatically things of tethering horses. But the discs is tiny, and quite low ceilinged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then, later in the day, St Edmund\u2019s, Downham Market. Both of these are churches I\u2019ve been to before. But in both instances I\u2019m finding new aspects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a young guy playing organ in St Edmund\u2019s today. So the church was open. I wandered around again, enjoying the stained glass, the atmos\u2019, and the organ. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But today I mostly snapped the environs. Starting atop the hill, and wandering off towards the cemetery areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
