Very rural setting, very simple in design St Andrew’s is thought to be an early nineteenth century rebuilding of a medieval church although no perceptible early fabric remains. Indeed the church is valued for its survival as a modest but evocative late Georgian Anglican box with Gothic windows, and a completely intact, single chamber interior. […]
This is a weird one, Half the church is no longer used for religious purposes and is separated from the other half of the church which is still has active services going on, fresh flowers, newsletters etc. When arriving we were pretty confused and unsure until you find yourself in the obviously no longer in […]
Great place, the church yard gets a lot of visitors and is on a public footpath so there are always people walking around the area. This church is no longer consecrated, services no longer taken place and its fallen into disuse with the one exception of a memorial service which is not of religious standing. […]
Lovely medieval church in the middle of nowhere church ; its a deconsecrated church , It looks like its had some recent attention but definitely looks medieval Some lovely markings from the 50’s on the outside of the porch and there was also a lovely sundial set into the side of the wall, I’ve never seen […]
Not the usual place I kind to frequent but it’s somewhere I’ve wanted to visit for several years! Fascinating place, Ossuaries are not very common, this one is medieval and is one of only 2 in the UK. There are more common in Europe and some of those ossuaries are quite the affair, you may […]

It was a beautiful old space ful to the brim of history there were folders and binders of photographs and informations gathered by a wonderful […]
The title is a typo but I quite like it so Im going to leave it! The autumn colours always make a great background for graveyards and whilst some might find it a little morbid these kind of places are a testament to how we have treated are dearly departed over the centuries! This […]
Had a recent trip to wales; It is such a beautiful country a place I will always go no matter what the weather or what time of year! This place feels like a little piece of the mediterranean! I was pretty shocked to see the inside of it, Its not your average church thats for […]
Tiny weeny little place, crudely built out of corrugated tin I think! this little welsh chapel was in quite good condition considering the age of it and the holes in the roof tucked away in between vast mountains and surrounded by hills its not a place you would stumble across unless you are a walker […]
I am often drawn to places of mixed architecture; Churches in any state are alway beautiful to see and capture but theres something very alluring about a redundant church. This one was built out of limestone and has been conserved since 1973. Originally constructed in the 13th Century this church had gargoyles and nice tiles; […]
