West rose window at Charlecote by O'Connor of London c1860.
St Leonard's church stands close to the main entrance to Charlecote Park and contains 16th and 17th century monuments to it's builders and residents, the Lucy family in the north chapel.
The church itself is an entirely Victorian building dating from 1851-3 designed by John Gibson.
The interior is somewhat dark (with much Victorian glass) and unusually the entire length of nave and chancel is finished with a stone-vaulted ceiling.

Detail of upper storey windows at Harvington Hall, a moated manor hall near Kidderminster. Pity about the shadow to the right from a (doubtless-of-architectural-interest) drainpipe.

Assignment: Like Night & Day (Diptych)
WIT: A tripod standing in the middle of the floor for five hours. I took the day picture around four and the night time photo at nine. I put the day and night picture together in photoshop. I also did a little cropping.
St Peter's at Binton is another church entirely rebuilt in the Victorian period, by Frederick Preedy in 1875-6. The building is entirely of this date, leaving no trace of the medieval structure, although there are reminders of it still in the fittings, with three medieval carved cross slabs (that at the west end being particularly fine) , along with a simple late medieval font. The early Georgian Royal Arms survives too.
The church is most famous for it's Kempe glass, which is found in three windows, although it is the west window people come to see. This commemorates Scott of the Antarctic (who was married to the rector's daughter and visited Binton regularly) and portrays four scenes from his last expedition, surreally shown within Kempe's trademark Gothic canopies.

Nous sommes arrivés en France! We are staying in this lovely country for two months this spring. Our primary residence is Lyon, the third largest city in France, located to the southwest. It is a historical, cultural, and very picturesque city founded as the Roman city of Lugdunum, spread out over two hills and two rivers -- the Saône and Rhône.
With side trips to locations as diverse as Paris, Perpignan, Aix-en-Provence, and more, Steve and I aim to get our fill of a country neither of us has seen in a decade, and enjoy the cuisine, culture, language practice, scenery, and generally, la vie quotidienne.
