Entry to the Parish Church of "St Mary's in the Market Place" is through the Great West Doors which stand underneath the tower. The main body of the church dates from 1817, although parts date back to the 14th century. Through the left hand side of the modern glass door can be seen the East window.
The Packhorse Inn can be seen reflected in the right hand side.
This photograph was taken on Christmas Eve 2011.
Since then the Packhorse Inn has changed to become the Cocked Hat and on January 4th I posted a photo of one the church windows reflected in the pub window.

ReplyDeleteWhat an intriguing photograph, from the reflection on the modern doors to the ancient buildings it draws me in where I want to see more. Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteMost of the theme day pictures seem to be featuring 'old' entrances... guess they don't make them like they used to... and this is one of the finest!
