A trip to visit the churches of deepest Essex, where my ancestors were hatched matched and despatched!

St Mary the Virgin, Hatfield Broad Oak












Obviously before the days of Ryanair and their measly baggage allowance!




Maybe my ancestor sat for the sculptor .. that nose looks familiar!







The metropolis of Hatfield Broad Oak .....







When my rellies ran out of beer I suppose they had to drink water ....




If I was a medieval architect, this building would be one of my creations!







I now know what Prince Charles means by a blot on the landscape ...





St John the Evangelist, Bush End, Hatfield Broad Oak








St Mary's, Broxted










Good old Ryanair!
