  2. Oh I bet that window looks brilliant inside Jim, beautiful old church, sad reasons for its being there though.
    Just looked back at the sculptures, sorry I missed them.

  3. This is a loving memorial to their son - a place that we can reflect, ask why and praying for peace and comfort in our lives and our souls too. The spires reach up to he heavens - as we can inside it too...

  7. The feature gracing the roofline is so creative. It gives this little chapel so much personality.
