Interior photo 1 · Great Warley

St Mary the Less, Great Warley Church – My immediate impression of the church was how dark it was. It was a beautiful day outside, and so it took a while for my eyes to adjust. I don't think it is the lack of windows that do this. More the fact that usual white walls one expects in a parish church were rather darker. Even to the untrained eye, the furnishings in this church are immediately special. I don't mean some temporary adornments, but the actual flesh and bones of the church. Virtually every square metre of this church is filled with something out of the ordinary!
