The small village of Gressingham, in the Lune Valley, is near Hornby, north of Lancaster. |
The narrow Loyne road bridge over the River Lune that leads to the village. The bridge is believed to date back to medieval time and is Grade 11 Listed |
The River Lune looking as cold as it really was on the day of the visit. |
The centre of the village. In the last Census, there were fewer than 200 folk living here. |
Stone crosses in the church yard. |
Gressingham Parish Church of St. John. |
The Church was originally built in the 12th century and is a Grade 1 Listed building. It was partly rebuilt in 1734. |
Mosaic set in the stone path to the Church. |
Inside the Church. |
The Church banner. |
Looking out of the lattice windows. |
This was a difficult image to take owing to the glare on the wooden board. |
Another stained glass window. |
Interesting church & very good interior images, not always easy. I found the list of Incumbents interesting, they seemed to have longer periods of service in times gone by.
