St Mary\u2019s.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After Megaplants, I felt the need for a fix of ecclesiastical architecture. I wanted to take Teresa somewhere like West Walpole, or Walpole St Peter\u2019s. But she didn\u2019t want to travel that far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So we – or rather I – checked out the church in Doddington, as we were there already. It\u2019s in a lovely setting. As the following photos, I hope, bear witness. But the church itself was locked. Bummer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, a quiet and leisurely walk around the church and graveyard was very pleasant. And yielded plenty of lovely pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I feel obliged to give one particularly handsome monument its own mini-gallery: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I feel inclined to utilise the stylised leaf design at home, somehow. A cornice or coving stencil pattern, perhaps?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And to finish, the view on returning to the car, and casting one last backward glance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
