mellis church font c15

usual east anglian font with lions round base and roses and evangelists symbols on bowl. are the roses tudor, and why does the font seem to have been made of two differing stones?

burgate church ww1 shrine

07 Mar 2010 135
odd first world war shrine from an army hospital in france, with shell cases used for altar furnishing. by ignoring this and other 1920s changes to the church pevsner gives a completely incorrect idea of what to expect here, the reality being quite individual in its own way.
