Flint from the Pennsylvanian of Ohio, USA. (~20.1 cm across at its widest)
Flint is the "official" state gemstone of Ohio (actually, there's no such thing as "official" anything). "Flint" is sometimes used as a lithologic term by modern geologists, but it is a synonym for chert. Flint and chert are the same - they are cryptocrystalline, quartzose sedimentary rocks. Rockhounds often assert that flint is high-quality while chert is low-quality. Some geologists assert that "flint" implies a biogenic origin and "chert" implies a chemical origin.
Many cherts do have a chemical origin - chert nodules are moderately common in some limestone units. The nodules form during diagenesis - pre-existing silica components in the carbonate sediments are dissolved, mobilized, and reprecipitated as chert masses. Some cherts do have a biogenic origin - for example, radiolarian cherts (rich in radiolarian microfossils) or spicular cherts (rich in siliceous sponge spicules).
The most famous flint deposit in Ohio is Flint Ridge, in Licking County. At this locality, the Middle Pennsylvanian-aged Vanport Flint is exposed in several places. The geologic literature on the Vanport Flint is relatively sparse, with inaccurate, incomplete descriptions and characterizations. For example, the literature describes the Vanport as a sheet of flint at Flint Ridge - it's actually a meganodule horizon. Other descriptions refer to the chert as the remains of siliceous sponges. In reality, siliceous sponge spicules are quite scarce in Vanport samples.
Two graduate student projects during the 2000s, conducted at two different universities, had very different conclusions & interpretations about the origin of the Vanport Flint. A 2003 study concluded that chert at Flint Ridge is biogenic in origin. A 2006 study concluded that the chert is chemical in origin.
Studies done by geologists at Ohio State University at Newark indicate that the Vanport Flint has a relatively complex history, the details of which are still being worked out.
Modern flint knappers value the Vanport Flint for being multicolored and high-quality (= very few impurities). With artificial heating, the flint is more easily knapped into arrowheads, spear points, and other objects. Prehistoric American Indians quarried the Vanport Flint at many specific sites on Flint Ridge. Old Indian flint pits can be examined along hiking trails in Flint Ridge State Park ("State Memorial"). Many authentic Indian artifacts found in Ohio (arrowheads & spearpoints - "projectile points") are composed of Vanport Flint.

St Giles church in Nether Whitacre possess a short red sandstone west tower of 16th century date, but was otherwise entirely rebuilt in the 1870s, with nave and chancel (plus north chapel/vestry) very much of their time.
It is however worth visiting for some small elements of 14th century glass and a wall monument of 1775 (in the vestry so normally difficult to see)..
It is also, happily, one of the very few churches in the north of Warwickshire that are kept regularly open and welcoming to visitors.

Nether Poppleton church Yorkshire
The real treasure of Nether Whitacre church is this superb early 14th century kneeling angel using a censer, situated in the tracery of the south chancel window.
It appears to be in reasonably good condition and has an especially fine head.
It is possibly a composite of two mirror image tracery figures from the old church since parts of the present figure (notably his lower half) appear to be painted on the outer face, suggesting they had been reversed at some stage.
The church of St Peter & St Paul at Nether Heyford is tucked away down a quiet lane and at first sight appears fairly modest by some standards with its simple squared-off tower and it's delightful caramel-coloured stonework.
The building is largely 14th century with later alterations and within is surprisingly spacious with an emphasis on width rather than height. The internal walls refreshingly retain their plaster, lightening the interior considerably (along with mostly clear-glazed windows). The most notable features here are the medieval Mauntell brass in the sanctuary and a fine mid-16th century wall monument to the Morgan family in the south aisle.

While trying to make my way to a portal construction site I was planning in the Nether, I saw this glowstone growth way above me.
With my graphics card upgraded today (yay!), I felt more confident about venturing up there without frame-rate issues hampering my progress, but I was still concerned that there would be a gaping hole into a lava lake, once I'd got up close to the glowstone.
There are times when I like to be wrong, and this is one of them! The ground is lovely and flat, with no precipitous drops nearby to give me sweaty palms (I get those a lot in the Nether, and not from standing near lava...).
Mind you, knowing my karma, I'll hack one out, and be met with a new lava fall that I can admire for the few remaining seconds of my avatar's life...
UPDATE: No problems mining it, and I ended up with 32 glowstone dust. Nice.

After some ringing about we managed to book this campsite. Brilliant helpfull people who run the site. Also very clean, tidy quiet site, the only fault was, its a bit out of the way. (for us) But insaying that I would use the site as a stopover to the Highlands.

A brief incursion over the Leicestershire border brought us to Nether Broughton and its attractive ironstone church of St Mary. We were of course too late to see inside (though it probably wouldn't have been open anyway being in a different and less visitor-friendly diocese) but did explore it externally at least.
The stonework is quite dramatically eroded in places, particularly on the tower (where the pale limestone decorative elements and parapet are holding up well while the honey-coloured ironstone appears to be significantly less hardy). The windows of the church appears to be glazed entirely with plain textured glass.
