DAYS OUT/CHURCHES : Thorney Abbey, Church of St Mary & St Botolph

Another visit to ye church of ye ol’ Thorney Abbey.

This time I didn’t a good deal more time looking around outdoors. The weather was gorgeous. And so, too, it turns out, is the graveyard.

Nice graveyard pano’.

I spent a good deal of time wandering around, snapping away. A primary school party passed through whilst I was making merry taking pics. I wonder what they all made of me (if anything)?

Having spent a really good deal of time, and most satisfyingly so, wandering around outside, on this most glorious of days, in a sublime graveyard, the time finally came to go in.

The real treasure here is the main window, pictured below. Truly glorious. And as I’ve said elsewhere, very like some of the stained glass at Ely Cathedral.

And lo, it finally came time to go…

Graffiti on the walls.
