Spotted at the end of a rafter support (is that a buttress?) also in Saint Jerome's church.

The screen at Saint Jerome's
@ Thursday, 01. Nov, 2007 – 19:23:03
Stumbling around the countryside the other day I happened across a rather interesting church... well two rather interesting churches actually... just half a mile apart... Saint Justin’s and Saint Jerome’s.
As many of you know I’m a bit of a geek for old things and I dare say you’re already wondering why you can’t actually see any pictures of churches on this blog entry... well it’s because the things that really caught my eye were inside one of the churches.
I guess in many ways this post is dedicated to Lonemum; the carving on this screen reminded me so much of her.
A small notice said the screen dates back to the 1600s (17th century) and if that’s accurate, it must be quite a rarity. I thought it was absolutely lovely.

Mind you don't get splashed!

Careful now...
Don't get too close...
Or you're bound to get yourself all wet and mossy...
Trust me, I know what I'm talking about!

Pipedreams

Well all have them don't we? Some lucky people even realise theirs while the rest of us continue to merely dream...
I'm still chasing my pipedream, but I'm not going to tell you what it is...
Anyone out there followed their dream and had it come true?
