Thanks CAT - that one took some finding.


By co-incidence I have a church ready as my next GTP.

[CAT]

The spherical 'ball's is the base of the weather vane, which is bent and standing above, but due to the angle of the pic looks like a rod.

[Smiffy]

Nothing to do with GtP, but does anyone know what the spherical object is on top of the tower?

[CAT]

Possibly, though I think both towers date from the same/similar period and is more stylistic?

[pete.mason]

The Tower looks identicaltoHastingleigh, I wonderif it was the same builders/mason?

[CAT]

That's the one John Walker.

It's a very interesting church as the chancel, which is almost as large as the nave itself was added to the earlier twelfth century nave during the early thirteenth-century giving the church an almost continuous roofline from the west tower to the chancel gable.

Over to you

[John Walker]

St Margaret of Antioch Church, Womenswold ?

[CAT]

not Hastingleigh Pete. Head northeast.

[pete.mason]

Hastingleigh?

[CAT]

Difficult to say. Certainly 'up on the Downs', but not especially elevated in the immediate village landscape, though it sits slightly above the lane that leads past its eastern end.

[John Walker]

Elevated location ?
