Bob,

I started shooting the village churches when I was posting a set of shots
with text each week to document my latest walk.  I stopped doing the weekly
text/shots combination but because of the interest expressed in the church
shots I carried on shooting them as a record more than anything else. I know
there are at least two men of the cloth on the lists who were particularly
interested and my own interest grew as I realised that each church is little
time capsule, usually 12th to 14th century, of local and occasionally
national history.

As I already post more than my fair share of shots the church shots started
to stack up but the recent blitz to get up to date is almost done and I will
start to take more when I have cleared the backlog completely.

I haven't specifically shot any other types of building in the area ( the
rush of air you just heard was a collective sigh of relief from those who do
not like the church stuff :-) )

Thanks for looking.
