#chapels — Public Fediverse posts

Strangely not very cold at all on the east coast of Anglesey today. Ideal for doing a bit of hunting for tombstone graffiti. In a very overgrown old chapel cemetery, this was quite a task!

Loughwood Meeting House, Devon

One of the earliest surviving Baptist meeting houses in Britain, founded in secret c.1653, remaining illegal until Toleration Act 1688.

Given to National Trust 1969 and really well restored. Absolutely adorable!

Capel Bethania, Bethesda (1885), north Wales. Just had to stop and catch this magnificent chapel in the strong winter sunlight this lunchtime.

In this one Kloe and I talk to Dr Sarah Turner about use of #collections in #churches, #cathedrals and #chapels this time of year - as well as much less serious stuff like playing a parlour game! ⛪

There's also a #BookReview, an interview, a #DearJane question, and of course a #song - 'Install Night' 🌌
