Not Newnham, you were slightly nearer with Doddington. The following clue should give it away: the building in the photo is about 100yds away from the redundant church with which it was formerly connected.

Well, that was the area I was searching.  I think I've looked near every church in that locality.  Newnham ?

You`re  nearly there, John.  Only a couple of miles away.



Can be seen on GE but the view of the church nearby is obliterated by trees.

Your clue gave that one away, John!


Next one, not a church but very close to one.

Well done Diapason.  It is indeed the Penny Pot Inn.  Just down the road from the now closed Thruxted Mill Animal Processing Plant.  The stench in the area was terrible.  They were fined for allowing liquids from the plant flow into the surrounding countryside.  Had been going on unsighted for years it seems.  Now, there is a planning application to build a small housing estate on the land.


I used to have to drive past it at times and my normally docile Labrador would immediately change character.  He would emit a low primeval growl, the whites of his eyes would show and his lips would go back.  Like a canine version of The Exorcist.  I was expecting his head to turn 360 degress!  Real spooky stuff!


Over to you ...
