Lancaster (277)

This is Lancaster Priory church, which is dedicated to St Mary, so I made sure to visit it (despite Lancaster having a very annoying one-way system). Because it's such a big church, Uncle Les wanted to get a lot of it in the photo - it means I look very small sitting beside the sign on a stick. I am NOT small, I am BIG Ted.

It’s a very big church and has two fonts – one with a big pointy lid, and another in an alcove; I sat near or in both, of course! [The font "in an alcove" is a Saxon font dating from the 7th Century, Big Ted]. I couldn't sit on the main font (see photo left) 'cos there was a big pointly lid with nothing for me to hang on to, so I wedged myself in between a noticeboard and the font - this is really not one of my better photos. The photo on the old font is MUCH better.

There was also a castle next to the church, but I couldn’t see much of it 'cos there were trees in the way.
