One of my delivery stops today was Belton Hall, a property in Lincolnshire, owned by the NT. Teresa and I must visit. I wonder, have we been before?

St. Bartholomew’s, Welby

I finished in the village of Welby today. And I was right next to St Bartholomew’s. So I had a look around. It was shut. But a phone call got someone out to open up for me.

St. Bart’s has some great gargoyles. And some nice ornamentation.

A rather snazzy rood screen, more interesting carvings inside, and one nice stained glass windows.

A great little church, a bit off my usual map. Literally. Further north than I usually go. Well worth a look.

St Andrew’s, Kelby
Bagpuss spots another spire, off in the distance. Actually I was recommended this church by the keyholder of St. Bart’s.

St Andrew’s was also locked. But in this case I couldn’t get hold of a keyholder. It was also a rare instance – as in singular – of the vicar (or whatever rank she holds) not being very helpful. But I won’t dwell on that.
