Walpole St. Peter, 1

Our next stop after King's Lynn was another five-banger, the parish church of St. Peter, "the Queen of the Marshlands," in tiny Walpole.

Not sorted

South entrance

Please remove your "Pattens," (wooden shoes); this place is nearly as close to
Amsterdam as London

The old oak doors are original, 14th

Huge, ancient workbench on the porch

View from the porch; the carving within is wondrous


Nave view

Pew boxes

On the port aisle, these seriously smallish pews, hobbit-sized

Tin-lined rocker

To keep the priest dry during outdoor festivities

14th century/20th century

Hobbit door

Font and exquisite Gothic hood

Chancel view

Misericords not that great

Nonetheless...
