Mostly interested in medieval churches especially cathedrals. Levity is always good, people take themselves far too seriously.
A somewhat rustic door at Nassington, Northants. The straw that is spilling from underneath and the side suggests that there's been a bit of a fight with the manger after the crib was put away! #AdoorableThursday
The Doom at Nassington, Northants. Christ with a somewhat robust arm giving a benefaction to the unseen dead as the ascend into heaven. No sign of a Hellmouth or the unfortunate's destined to toast their toes.
The doors that open into Ewelme church from the adjacent almshouses. Looking forward to our visit tomorrow. @CathyRLowe @StroudStory
Roman Reculver in Kent. Loving to be beside the seaside for over 1000 years.
Cotterstock has a lovely church and the door has some age. The ironwork is very good but that handrail…oh my. #AdoorableThursday
Old and creaky door, I know the feeling, set into the remains of a wall built from parts of the previous church at Barnwell, Northants. #AdoorableThursday
Viking horns and ear muffs at Tansor. Before we discovered that Vikings didn’t have horns…
When it’s your turn to unlock the church but you left the keys in your other jacket.
Fotheringay was one of Northamptonshire’s five collegiate churches. Sadly, all@that we see today is the nave, the chancel was demolished in 1573 the College having been dissolved in 1548 having been transfers to Dudley, Earl of Northumberland. We can see the scars still.
Sir John De Verdun d.C1376 at Brixworth. Clearly an early adopter of Ugg boots.
The great 15thC east window at St Kyneburgha, Castor. The altar frontal with its golden fish is rather unusual too. #TraceryTuesday #TextileTuesday
"Why what big teeth you've got..." Samson and the Lion (I think) at Castor. A rather jolly Nelly appears to be behind the lion.
