#AdventAngels in Sherborne Abbey, Dorset. I loved the experience of visiting this charming little town; somehow more manageable than being overwhelmed in a cathedral city!
This window by Powell & Sons, to mark 50th anniversary of founding of Sherborne School for Girls in 1899. Dedicated 1951.

Calling any Skipton based followers here! As we work through the archive of architect George Pace, we've come across a whole stack of rather lovely ink sketches of all the buildings on Skipton High Street made as part of a 'street improvement plan' in the early 1960s.

A cluster of #ladybirds on a gravestone. I visited 3 different churchyards on the same day and found this in all of them. I wonder why?
