Where Am I? No. 27 - Country Church
« on: Wednesday 20 May 15 06:41 BST (UK) »
Okay, here's the next one!  A little bit more distinctive in design.

This is not a postcard, but someone's happy snap.

Happy hunting!

Hi Caz...It might be a good idea to scan the statue in the centre of the photo as it could help with identification.

Stating the obvious, but that is the grave of someone of note and wealth.  Quite over the top really.

All I can make out is that it is a man with long hair and a ruffled shirt, reclining like the lord of the manor.  ::)

Probably a saint or biblical figure who the church is named after.

Do Saints where ruffled shirts  ;D ;D ;D ;D  Sorry!  ;D ;D ;D  Can't stop thinking about Seinfield and the puffy shirt episode!  ;D ;D

I thought more of a Knight or nobleman from his appearance and grandiose pose.   :-\
