Just love this spot #BurnhamDeepdale even on a murky cold morning - Barn Owl, Hen Harrier, 4 Spoonbill, Grey Plover and 9 Black Tailed Godwit were new for the year. Also lots of Brents in the harbour, Pinkies over, 5 Marsh Harrier and 2 Chinese Water Deer! #Norfolk #Birds #Mammals #UKBirding
👀 St Mary’s Church, #BurnhamDeepdale #Norfolk
A censing angel, which David King (Stories in Glass 📕) dates to between c1435 & c1445.
It is unclear where the glass came from, but it was probably inserted in the tower by Frederick Preedy in the 1875/6 restoration.
