#Blakeney #church in #Norfolk.
The church is unusual as it has two towers, a main (15c) one to the west end and an older, smaller (13c) one at the east end that believed to be used as a beacon to guide ships into harbour when Blakeney was a significant sea port.

All Saints #church, #Morston, #Norfolk.
On the day Britain declared war on Germany in 1939 artist Sir #AlfredMunnings was doing a painting of this very church.
The red brick repair to the tower is due to repairs made after it was struck by lightning in 1743.

I find it quite sad to see a single, solitary @CWGC headstone in a churchyard. This one from #WW2 and the somewhat alliterative Trooper Tom Taberner (Life Guards), family at Barley Fields farm, Bell House Lane, #Anslow, #EastStaffordshire.

That she's thousands of miles away in China means we're already better off.
Might she just stay there permanently?
Thank you, that has properly made me laugh! Brilliant.
Ready for #Baku!
Come on @McLarenF1 you can do this!

Always nice to find the latest GreatWarGroup edition in the postbox on a weekend.
Quick brew and settle in, methinks. I'll have the good fortune to get back to the battlefields again one day!

"Cemeteries are parks for the introverted." - Jim Tipton, Find A Grave
⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ ... this!
I'm more than comfortable to label myself an introvert ... alongside being a teetotal, non-smoking atheist. I bet I'm fun at parties 😂

Interesting, spiral staircase built into a corner wall at #Rendlesham #church of St Gregory in #Suffolk; suspect this led up to an original (not to mention high up!) pulpit ...
Beautiful #Rendlesham church of St Gregory in #Suffolk, one of the more unusual I have visited in that its interior is painted a striking 'Suffolk pink'. Big thanks to @nicpandolfi.bsky.social for drawing this church to my attention in the first place!

Is this at Rendlesham? Great photos, btw.

Any #WW1 people know if there are photos of the @CWGC graves at #Plovdiv Central Cemetery in #Bulgaria? It's in preparation for Burton rugby club's annual poppy appeal and concerns remembering former player Frank Abbott Bailey who is buried at Plovdiv.
Thanks!

There's nothing quite like the quiet solitude of a lonely country #church, but at the same time there is the awe at the ages old majesty and grandeur of a breathtaking #cathedral ...

First week of #DryJanuary2024 done ... trying to beat my 2023 75-day streak and hit 100 days.
AI seems to be coming up with reasonable images re my abstinence - however, with the skull (where did THAT come from?) is it perhaps trying to tell me something?
Got the invite, decided to give it a whirl.
Any good?
