History of St Margaret's #2
St MARGARET’S CHURCH GARDENS article from Zandra Lewis
By the 1890’s St. Margaret’s Churchyard which was over 70 yards from the main Bury Road was bound East, West and South by fields and there was an uninterrupted view of the Church.

Scandal in Salisbury
Recently I had a rare opportunity to visit Church House in Salisbury. Used for administration of the diocese today, it is an attractive medieval/post-medieval building retaining many original features, and has an interesting but sometimes rather murky past.
Originally it was built in the 15th century by a merchant called William Lightfoot, and was known in that era as The Falcon.

This 1250 church in Rishangles, Suffolk, UK is one of the most beautiful I've seen. (However, I wouldn't want to drive down this road and walk past the cemetery in the night.) 4bds. £750K / $941,099.25
According to the floorplan, the glass structure alongside the tower is a staircase, but I don't see any stairs.
These walls are the original ancient architecture.
The ancient church was restored in the Victorian era, and this beautiful wood work looks Victorian.
Isn't this a lovely fireplace with a mezzanine above?
Here's a view from above.
The restored window is lovely.
Behind this chair, in the corner, there's a very narrow stairway.
Isn't the kitchen cute? I love the shape of the cabinets and that's an AGA stove, too.
This is such a wonderfully vintage kitchen.
Nice church door.
This looks like a bedroom and whomever took the photos didn't do such a great job.
There's a different railing up here.
This bedroom has steps to a tub that's actually set into the stairs.
This bath looks like it has a Japanese soak tub.
These photos are terrible.
I don't even know if these are the same stairs.
So, here's another photo of a landing.
I don't know, this looks like a reflection from the stairs alongside the tower.
Alongside the church there's a patio.
Plus a very nice yard.
