Viewed from the rear.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Another church for the collection. Initially giving off vibes of a fairly run of the mill place, with not a great deal of particular interest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The approach modes the church behind many mature trees. So there\u2019s a nice \u2018reveal\u2019, as the building gives into view. The entrance is via a rather humble doorway (third pic in the gallery below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As usual, with these old Anglican churches, if you look carefully, something – often many things – will reveal itself. In this case, it\u2019s the panel paintings below. Sadly they\u2019ve been effaced, literally. Vandalised by someone, possibly of a vengeful Puritannical bent?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I then walked around the back of the church, which is nicely situated in a very beautiful mature tree populated setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
