Recent bad weather has taken its toll on the fence at St. Peter & St. Paul's in Old Felixstowe, leaving just enough room for a strategically placed bike...

Holy Trinity Church at Chantry, near Frome, yesterday:


And another couple of shots (without bike) of St John Baptist & All Saints at Witham Fryery as I thought it was quite unusual:


Unlikely to be many more photos from me until I have recovered from my, hopefully, imminent hip replacement surgery, as I could barely walk after the ride and incurred the wrath of my wife

One from this morning's ride

Outside Gayton church that looks to be undergoing some restoration work .

Poltimore church, near Exeter.

The church is constructed of red sandstone with dressings of volcanic trap. The list of Rectors of the parish dates back to 1259 and the oldest part of the church is the west tower, which has a fourteenth century door and a peal of six bells that date from 1723. The rest of the church was altered during the restorations of 1879-82.

Actually, from the exterior, the Victorian 'restoration' looks relatively sympathetic, unlike many of the churches that the Victorians 'improved'.

I love the door and its surround on the Church of St Michael, Cornhill. It stands on one of the oldest Christian sites in Britain, dating back to the Roman occupation. The current building was built by Christopher Wren in 1672, the tower was added in 1722 by Nicholas Hawksmoor, and was restored by Sir George Gilbert Scott in 1860
