Very nice. Clearly very well kept, which is always good to see.
Yep.
Hey Magicfingers,
Classic church and surroundings…
Simple memorial but very cool anyway.
How do you find these places?
Back in lockdown in Melbourne mate…
Daisy.
I have a church-tracker. Five quid on ebay……..
Until about the late 1940s my Dad’s family used to own Marshfoot Farm just down Wartling Hill from the church! There doesn’t appear to be any connection to the church though. No marriages, christenings or burials that I can find!
How interesting. And coincidental. I cannot for the life of me remember what I was doing there!
Sorry to hear that Daisy.
Love these old churches M and the history they hold. Always B line for the commemorative plaques of ww1 and ww2 and sometimes even older.
Agree this one does appear cared for and looked after
And I love finding them!
