WW - Greensted church
This week's entry for the Tuesday and Wednesday edition of Wordless Wednesday.
Great shot of the church. I think I like the way small churches like that look better than large cathedrals. I guess I like the architecture of many kinds in different ways but I really like small churches even chapels that seem at home in their environment rather than imposing themselves on it. That's a very appealing one.
Interesting church. I would have thought it was a farm house or something if I didn't read.
ReplyDeleteHappy WW Tues/Wed :)
Crazy for that church.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting photo. It looks like a house and church combined.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful and interesting building.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it's an interesting building. At the first glance, you would think it's a house.
ReplyDeleteHappy WW.

I like it. The windows and the scalloped entry are very interesting. Look at your lovely blue skies. Enjoy...

ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. I love buildings like this... they seem very romantic to me. Not sure why. I agree with you about Pamplona.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what kind of Church is that...it's very cozy.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the different style church houses. They are always so unique. I also like looking at barns and lighthouses.
ReplyDeleteInteresting church. I like how the tower and the main building have such different styles.
ReplyDeleteThat's such a pretty building!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone
ReplyDeletelove that sky!
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot of neighborhoods around here built in the 70's and 80's that look just like that church! Well, minus the steeple thingie anyway.
ReplyDeleteAh but not with 1,000 year old wood, I bet!
