Good to see you back in church again. A lovely church, nice Norman chancel arch, the tub font is probably the same period. The lists on the wall are the 10 Commandments. The Royal arms are George IV. A hatchment is invariably a lozenge shape and the Royal Arms a conventional square frame.

If I was a roofer, I would offer (for free) to fix that leak - it doesn't look like a big job, and it would be a shame if that got left to get worse.

how in theworlds did that medieval stain glass survive and to what extent is there medieval painting under that plaster...whats the story here...

Ah beautiful. Do you like the smell of churches?

loved this video steve, really appreciate your efforts to bring us these ancient places, !

The landed Gentry steve, absolutely stunning, great age yet stonework and stained glass very pleasing to live with, I felt very much at home there, set in lovely grounds, and to think an earlier house once stood there , very impressed ! Tomb s are amongst the best I've seen

This is cool. I LOVE the aerial rise of the drone and the 360. Nice show. And I SAW the motte and remains of the castle in the background. So close. 👍

The site looks very paeceful on the video, hard to imagine it was a site of much bloodshed, very interesting video steve!

Great video

Intrigued by the star of David on the stain glass window.

Superb, Steve ,thank you for mentioning this video, very impressed with the stained glass, and the monument to Essex Cheeke and her mother Anne, who's second husband Robert Rich, was a grandson for Richard Rich who betrayed Thomas More .Essex Cheeke married into the Montague family-[ Richard Rich served 4 monarchs Mary 1st Elizabeth 1st, Anne and king Henry the eighth] Mother and daughter were painted by Van Dyhe

I have just subscribed.

Hi this is the guy you met at Harrold and Odell country park the name of the village with the historic church is Farndish

Extremely interesting video in many ways the site of the American Lincoln took me back to my childhood. The Bishops palace had I believe had a number of we!I known visitors, Katherine of Aragon was taken there after her divorce from Henry, before being taken to kimbolton... Louis Bonaparte 3rd came to England a number of times and so surprised and thrilled to find his name linked to this small and wonderful town, looks like the tree had been well pollarded! Keep up your great videos, Steve I enjoy searching the back stories, that often help in my Genealogy research

Thanks for posting--I've been missing your wanders! And the cars are a nice touch.

Some even insist there's 'no such thing as English culture'. I beg to differ. A glorious gift from our forefathers.

Great little video, many thanks

Where is this church ?

The gentleman doing the tour of the church is a very lovely man, I met him in elstow.

I enjoy the videos. Please show more of the organs ,,,, longer look perhaps

Amazing paintings 😊

Where is this church please?

That's amazing - would like to see more of it!!

Have you done videos in the other 3 round churches still in england from the middle ages?

Some wonderful Saxon stonework, thank you 😊

inflation data only goes back to 1750. 4 grand then will be worth £1,111,479.43 now. obviously money in 1714 will be worth more than this.

Nice coverage of the church, That tomb effigy of Elizabeth Carey is quite special especially as it looks so undamaged

Your X account appears to have been hacked.

So interesting! There are gothic and norman arches tributed on the tower (read it was built post gothic in late 15th) and the norman arch on the door - way cool. The arcading was gothic, but the tops of the pillars reminded me of neo classical - anyone know the history? North aisle was built in 14th. Thanks for the tour!!! ❤

😊

Love these church exploration videos

Nice coverage of the church which I have been to a long time ago but did not get inside. The Piddington near Thame is the one I have been to as well. thechurchexporer.blogspot.com/2016/03/st-john-and-st-mary-magdalene.html

The reason for a locked font cover dates back to the 13th century when the Archbishop of Canterbury directed that fonts were to be covered with a lockable 'seal' to stop consecrated water being stolen for magical and medicinal purposes. Covers became increasingly elaborate although most of the medieval ones are now lost.

It’s beautiful and similar to the Anglo Saxon church I did a video on. There’s a few ones like this actually usually in the north.

Another wonderful tour, thank you 😊

Absolutely fascinating and beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Love this so much.

Would be useful to tell us where it is at the beginning

Great video. We have a similar passion obviously, loving these fabulous buildings. Keep up the fabulous work. Opens my eyes to a different part of the country. Well done.

The building separate to the manor looks like it was the tithe barn - anyone know about this? Brilliant video as always! Thanks Steve!

American pronunciation of lieutenant

Um, where is it?

The victorian windows are by Heaton Butler and Bayne. The single angel is medieval.

Agree totally about the font and lid, another great video thank you 😊

The Mariott connection is interesting. It just goes to show - there is such a thing as 'old money' dynasties.

Looks like cement pointing around the Alter walls. A kind of rough strap pointing. Probably the church had issues with damp and was advised to seal the walls with cement. Problem is the walls should be breathable. Sealing the walls can lead to other issues. Like increasing damp and mould growth. The cement looks like it’s cracking. Makes me wonder if the exterior walls are pointed with cement as well.

Great job Steve, thank you 😊

Yes. Love them Steve. Kind regards Niall O'Connell Dundalk Ireland.

Beautiful shots and some amazing music 😊

The drone shots are great indeed. And the music is beautiful. But “ When the levee breaks” would’ve been more suitable. :)))
