Local history, family history and other random miscellany;
here, there and everywhere.

To @ChCh_Oxford in search of hoopoe and pink toilet, but found so much more. Glorious hues in NW corner with new Tom Denny window and this delight by Abraham van Linge, Jonah under a gourd tree (not pears as I thought!) #StainedGlassSunday

@StroudStory @CathyRLowe @CarolineIrwin3 @todbooklady @chartres_Fiona @churchartnature @Portaspeciosa @PosyHill1 @scarabcat @HistoryMalc Black and white tile loveliness too! Coincides with my spot of them in @GMPriory yesterday, at the feet of Hope, Faith and Charity (1846, George Rogers). (Pic from the Priory's explanation booklet as too high up in north transept to get a half-decent photo...)

Final day of a family holiday in Cornwall and another early morning coastal walk came up with the goods - a Hoopoe in and around the gardens at Bass Point, which showed pretty well in the end! A much-wanted self-found tick.
