I had a good response from yesterdays blog so I thought I would finish it off with a few more and a little bit of history.
This is a circa 1500 Parish Chest sitting on a Bier which is 20th century (used for transporting coffins).
Look closely at the wildlife enjoying a meal on the hat.
The preacher looks quite happy even though he has straw head and hands!
In the field adjacent were various flowers.
including a few Poppies.
There was a vast expanse of wheat.
Hope you enjoyed a little bit about this lovely Church more information go to..... www.stmaryschurchhigham.com

nite nite, luv Mike XX
