A Son of the Rock

The most prominent architectural feature in Rye is St Mary’s Church.

The Church is rather hemmed in though – there’s not much room on the hill where it’s situated. This is a stitch of photos to show the whole church from the east:-

Clock Tower:-

Clock tower from High Street:-

Graveyard and Church:-

Church and War Memorial – note the upturned sword on the memorial turning it into a Cross of Sacrifice:-

Inside the church a memorial quilt was on display. The topography of the church made this difficult to photograph:-

Also a memorial erected by their parents to the choristers of the church who fell in the Great War:-
