This is classic DG at its best - thank you - makes me want to go and see it all right now. I was especially taken with your photos and write-up of Normanton Church. Really intriguing stuff. |
Great write up, DG. Want to go see for myself. Just one thing - any trip out of London to the countryside at this time of year requires a full set of thermals, plus wind & water proof jacket, trousers etc. The countryside can be way colder. That's Easter for you! They'll come in useful come the Summer - specially if it's a normal English one. |
Rutland really is one of Englands gems, thanks for this. Uppingham is also really rather splendid |
Thanks for the amazing lake tour. I think I got chill blains just reading along. The half-sunk church is very odd and amazing. :0) |
Here's a 360ยบ view of the interior of Normanton Church courtesy of the BBC. http://www.bbc.co.uk/leicester/ 3...on\\_church.shtml They also have one of Oakham Castle, though for some reason they've chosen an exterior shot. http://www.bbc.co.uk/leicester/ 3...am\\_castle.shtml |
I think I'll wait til it warms up a bit, looks good tho. |
The museum at Normanton Church has gone sadly. It's used as a wedding venue now. I'm not sure if you can go in if there isn't a wedding on (as there was a wedding on today when I passed).
The Rutland Belle still sails. |
