    I was researching my family history when I came across your video of this church. My 7xGreat Grandfather was the Churches Parish Clerk for 52 years. I believe he is buried in the cemetery. I look forward to adding this stop to my next UK Trip.

      Yes they do - I love the fact they are different and tell the individual story of the community.

      It is a lovely little place - Julia and I stopped to admire it some time ago on our way back from Middle Farm I think, and I knew I had to come back to make a video about it.

    I especially enjoyed your Beddingham church video as 164 of my Moores were baptised in St. Andrews. Between 1820 and 1869 out of 465 baptisms in the church, 119 of them were my family tree members. The census of 1841 shows that out of a population of 268, 51 of them were Moores.

      More Moores than I would have supposed. :)

    Lovely building an setting very plain inside very Puritan like I’m sure Cromwell would approve if he was still around , thanks for sharing Richard 👏

    Another great vid & another beautiful church Richard! Loved that tower - as soon as I saw it I thought it looked very castlestic(🤔that a word?!😅 Castle-like!). Loved all that flint work & those windows!😍

    A very interesting church - quite simple and plain internally. The north aisle has a very low eaves height! Does the church not have an organ?

    • @RichardVobes
      @RichardVobes  5 років тому

      I think it did have an organ actually.

    In many ways, Norman churches are notable by having Romanesque arches. none were evident in this church. As you say there are a number of interesting ones both side of the river.

    • @RichardVobes

      I believe from a drawing I found that the only the four corners of the original normal nave is still there. The rest is later. :(

    William morris as you know im quite fond of..he did many windows and some quite fabulous indeed...maybe that's one of his lesser implementations ..lesser im mean not like his much more elaborate and larger ones..as all his work is rather special I think as is his friend the great walter crane lol I don't know if he did that one there. but certainly seems style of.as it happens if ones interested I have in my bookmarks about some of his window work here is link.victorian-era.org/william-morris-stained-glass-windows.html

    • @RichardVobes

      I confess I couldn't tell a William Morris from a fake, but those windows reminded me of his work.
