Hello!Sorry for opening constant threads, but I seem to be enjoying this way to much. We went up to the little chapel past Aberford today, I think my boyfriend is hoping I'll get bored of this soon, especially after I left him sat in a hot car as I went galavanting off into a field of sheep with his SLR camera (which I've never used before so please ignore the terrible pictures). I have only just recently found out it was there and have been very keen to go see it for a while now. It's a fantastic little building and the guys who maintain it should be really proud http://www.flickr.com/photos/ninanoonan ... otostream/ and a few more after thatWe then went up to Lotherton Hall and saw the Chapel of Ease and this strange little building:http://www.flickr.com/photos/ninanoonan ... treamThere is a couple of these up at Temple Newsam, but I'm not sure what they are / were. This one at Lotherton is different as it seems to have something in the middle of it.

It's a lovely little chapel is that I agree. Very peaceful in the middle of that field. The Battle of Towton was fought there, which was the bloodiest battle ever fought on British soil, casualties were believed to have been in excess of twenty thousand (perhaps as many as thirty thousand) men
