From north #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for #Thursgate #IronworkThursday
Lovely overthrow perfectly frames the porch
North (left) and south elevations of the tiny #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire chancel for #WindowsOnWednesday
Wide, single cusped, pointed lights in Early English style although in reality probably C20. Small blocked square section single light #GhostWindow can be seen to the north
Nave, south elevation #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for #WindowsOnWednesday
The 1920's addition of the south aisle with its cat slide roof was very sensitively done even by today's heritage building standards. It was faithful to the original materials and preserved the C17 window
From north #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for #TowerTuesday
Squat and yet delicate 3-stage tower with single string course, moulded parapet and small, decorated, recessed octagonal spire. Interesting pair of narrow square headed lights with pierced stone screens to bell stage
North porch. Interior #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for #AdoorableThursday
(Probably) C15 filleted and studded door set in square set Tudor arch doorway. Sadly all blighted by a #WireThroughTheApex #ChurchWiringNightmare
North porch #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for #DoorwayThursday
Fabulous C13 double chamfered circular arch with label supported on clustered shafts with moulded capitals
East elevation of south aisle #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for #WindowsOnWednesday
Square set 3-light window with cusped (mildly) pointed lights and square moulded label. Recorded as an original C15 window reset in the C20 aisle

From west #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for #TowerTuesday
Cited as C15 but slit windows tell another story. Every #TinyWindow tells a story after all. C13 Mouse suspect. There is the faint suspicion of long and short work to the quoins... a tower of Saxon origin? #TinyWindowTuesday
North of nave. Interior #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for (not so) #AdoorableThursday
The beautiful (probably) C15 north door has been re-planked inside. Insensitively, sadly. Inauthentic diagonal thin planks with bevels
A fitting time to introduce Mouse's #WartsAndAllPhotos #
Nave, north elevation #StMaryLimpley #Wiltshire for #WindowsOnWednesday
The nave windows are remarkably high set. These were added C17 and are typical of their era. Square set 2-light window with cavetto moulded segmental aches to the lights and label with no stops
