John the Baptist Church, Inglesham. Part II
We returned to this fascinating church which was featured in my Blip of
Saturday
This view is from behind the altar rail, shows the historic box pews, which provided seating for the lord of the manor, civic dignitaries and finally churchwardens.
This was before seating was customary.
On the floor in the aisle is a 10 foot (3 m) black marble slab that once held the brass of a 14th century knight, with a basinet, sword and four shields.
