The Ragged Society of Antiquarian Ramblers: Bells of Blue
http://raggedramblers.blogspot.com/2015/05/bells-of-blue.html
Saturday, 2 May 2015. Oh what a wonderful wander we had among the bells of blue at Stratton Strawless today. This open woods event is very dear to Ragged Ramblers' hearts, it traditionally being the curtain raiser to the Ramblers summer season. Oh what slabs of cake we consumed, so moist of crumb and delectable! What tea we sipped to slake our thirst. I bought a rubber pig and an old ink well with a lid resolutely rusted into place. I also acquired this small tome. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Ragged Society of Antiquarian Ramblers: Gadzooks, it's Queen Victoria!
http://raggedramblers.blogspot.com/2015/04/gadzooks-its-queen-victoria.html
Tuesday, 28 April 2015. Gadzooks, its Queen Victoria! With great expectation,. Mr Many Coats and I cantered into St John the Baptist Church, Stiffkey. At first, we thought we were alone. However, we soon noticed a small figure sitting at the front of the church with their back to us. Hesitantly, we made our way to the chancel and when we turned to look at the person sitting there we were. we were - AMAZED! There, before us, sat Queen Victoria herself! 29 April 2015 at 00:21. 2 May 2015 at 17:08. We of th...

The Ragged Society of Antiquarian Ramblers: St Clement, Burnham Overy
http://raggedramblers.blogspot.com/2015/05/st-clement-burnham-overy.html
Sunday, 3 May 2015. St Clement, Burnham Overy. Walking up the path I was pleased to note an early 18thC gravestone memorialising Isaac Overman in the most rustic of lettering. I had to wonder if it was a palimpset; possibly previously part of a medieval mensa (altar slab)? Walking into the church my eyes fell upon this - presumably 15thC - St Christopher. The chancel is a wonderful space, full of golden sunlight and atmosphere. On the right is the narrowest of aisles. 3 May 2015 at 19:30. Thanks Tom....

The Ragged Society of Antiquarian Ramblers: St Nicholas, Castle Hedingham, Essex
http://raggedramblers.blogspot.com/2015/04/st-nicholas-castle-hedingham-essex.html
Sunday, 19 April 2015. St Nicholas, Castle Hedingham, Essex. At the weekend a small party of Ragged Ramblers visited Castle Hedingham. For one of us this had a special meaning as it was the village where they spent part of their childhood. Here are some photographs we took on the day. This is a fascinating church in a wonderful setting. Much of the fabric of this church dates from the early 12th century. That 'wheel window' is certainly eye-catching! Phantasmagorical figure above the porch entrance.

The Ragged Society of Antiquarian Ramblers: Sir Munchmellow Cubely-Blunder
http://raggedramblers.blogspot.com/2015/04/sir-munchmellow-cubely-blunder.html
Sunday, 26 April 2015. One of our esteemed members has been kind enough to share this mid-seventeenth portrait of his relative, Sir Munchmellow Cubely-Blunder, with us here on the Ragged Ramblers blog. In his days at Cambridge Munchmellow earned the nickname of 'Thud and Blunder! In recognition of his huge losses at the cubes (dice) and for his tendency to suddenly collapse with a thud when asked to do anything that required logical thought. What a fine gentleman! 26 April 2015 at 14:38. Here is the link:.
