Martham

St Mary's
TG 454 184

It was the day for dressing up for harvest festival when I visited this church. It had a number of people, mainly women, attending to the displays, the interior shots therefore show some of these people.

 

The tower area has been modified to add rooms for community use and a small balcony overlooking the main church, a useful and well-executed idea.

 

The main area of interest for me was a superb collection of poppy-head pew ends. One of which apears to be of greenman style but looks also like a death mask, it definitely has leaves around the head. There are a couple of other figures on other pews and a fish (not shown) on one.

 

The roof of the nave is decorated with wooden angels in a variety of poses and the chancel has a nice, if plain, sedilia.

 

Clicking on the map reference at the top of the page will take you to a map of the area
