Ovington Church



Took these a few weeks ago while visiting some churches. This church is relatively new so no really old wall paintings but did have a few interesting mosaics.





Over the door you can see this Funerary Hatchment and behind the alter this tiled cross


 Most of the churches I visit have embroidered kneelers which are works of art in their own right


But this roll of Honour I thought was best being as it is made from ceramic tiles. A lot of thought and work went into making this memorial to Honour the fallen in World War One

Three boys from the same family. So sad. You don't see much in the way of WWI memorials here. WWII and Viet Nam seem to be the wars that still reverberate with us. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
