St Mary’s

I went to a funeral in this church yesterday.
It was a glimpse back into the past for me as this was the church I attended in my child hood & where Harry & I were married 60 year ago.
We lived a couple of houses past here & I walked to the church from home on my wedding day & then back again.
We had our reception in the main sitting room which had a large sun lounge attached.

You can see the organ pipes on the right, they were not there when I used to sing in the choir & peer over the top to watch my favourite altar boy…… happy memories!

Three good things:
1. A treatment at the beauty salon…
2. Homemade soup.
3. I finished my library book…..too long but I had to skip through it to see who the murderer was! I shan’t read any more of hers, far too gruesome!
It’s a lovely church, I like the simplicity.

@busylady Well I wouldn’t call myself a choir girl Judith, they were glad of as many as they could get there were a few of us but we never ever had choir practice!! 🤣

A lovely capture of this beautiful church - full of country charm with its white walls and beams. Although in the sadness of the day it must have brought you so many happy memories of your childhood and yours and Harry's wedding!

I remember being in the choir stalls and a friend and I got the giggles and couldn't sing! This might be catholic? A place to kneel!

I like how you centered this on the altar but the benches are not symmetrical
