#spring has arrived at Wheatley St Mary the Virgin. The village had a chapel by 1427, which was replaced with a new building in the late 18th century. However, the present building dates to the mid-19th century. It was built in a new location to a design by G E Street and was consecrated in 1857. A collection of beasts from the choir stall ends in Bath Abbey. #fantasticbeasts #bathabbey #choirstalls #ecclesiasticalfurniture #churchesofinstagram #abbey #church #georgegilbertscott St Giles church, Horspath, Oxfordshire. Originally 12th-century with 15th-century additions. Chancel and nave north wall rebuilt in 19th century and vestry added. Pembroke Castle birthplace of Henry Tudor (future Henry VII) on 28th January 1457. His mother, Margaret Beaufort was just 13 years old when he was born. View from the roof of Portchester Castle keep, looking towards Portsmouth (August 2021). The church of St Mary sits within the outer walls of the castle. Carved head on the 19th century tomb of Queen Katherine Seymour. Designed by George Gilbert Scott. Carved by the firm of J Birnie Phillips. View westwards along the nave of St Mary's church in Stoke-by-Nayland in Suffolk (photo taken 2018). Much of the building dates to the late-15th century. The artist John Constable grew up nearby and the exterior of the church appears in a number of his paintings. The nave of Salisbury Cathedral. It was built in the 13th century but heavily restored by James Wyatt in 1789-92. Wyatt removed the remaining medieval stained glass and wall paintings, and relocated medieval monuments from elsewhere in the church, neatly lining them up under the nave arcades. He also demolished the remaining part of the free standing bell tower, two porches and two medieval chantry chapels. The church of St Paul's in Branxton, Northumberland. The medieval  church was largely rebuilt in 1849 but the 12th-century chancel arch (with 13th-century head) survives.
