Ripple (213)

St Mary's in Ripple is really nice and is open every day. It is called "the biggest medieval church in Worcestershire" and has a splendid set of things called misericords (I had to have this word explained to me – they're sort of half seats that you rest your bottom on when you're supposed to be standing up and singing. That sounds like a very good idea!). I had a sneaky sit on one to check it out (see right) - it works!

I had to hold on really tight to stay on the font cover for my photo (see left).
