Phew! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the orgy of wood-carving in the previous gallery\/post, it\u2019s onwards and upwards, to the altar, for a look back\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Up at this altar end of the church, is where the only real concentration of stained-glass occurs. There are also many little mini-corbels, which are quite entertaining to study. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this juncture I started to wander back down the length of the church, on the northerly side. Working my way back down the church towards the large and ornately carved font\/font cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once back at the font\/organ end, I shot a few more sundry images, including some interesting pipe work – not just organ pipes – some of which skirts around yet more fascinating cornel work. This time larger and higher up (and correspondingly harder to see\/photograph).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And so\u2026 we come to the final gallery! In this third, and probably largest, of these posts on St Peter\u2019s. Which is mostly stuff I shot in the graveyard, working my way back to the car, through the underpass thingy. The latter has metal rings set in the walls. Poss\u2019 for tethering horses?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I originally tried posting all the contents of these three posts in one single blog entry. But it was slow to load, and very glitchy. Hence breaking it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nice graveyard pano\u2019.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And ok, it is a lot<\/em> of pictures. But then, as already noted, it really is<\/em> a stunning church. In fact I\u2019m still not done with it! I\u2019d love to come back on a really sunny day, and snap away in brighter conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And\/or, maybe at the \u2018magic hour\u2019, of dusk or dawn? I guess I\u2019d need access to the keys for that? We shall see\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
