Thanks, Piers and Frank.
It’s Hatley church, Piers, looking west towards Johnny Astor’s estate; his crop
fields are further north on the Wrestlingworth side. Those are pastures for
cattle at the moment, but I suppose you’re right that they are double furrows
and more modern. I was very lucky with the light, which suddenly appeared as
my Spark rose above the level of the church roof. That little church is rather
lovely inside as well:

And this is the "Plague Church” at Chellington:

Frank, I haven’t yet printed a drone image, but there should be enough decent
pixels so to do. This year has been one of domestic upheaval owing to the
refurbishment of our cellar having taken 11 months; all our stuff was in
different places. Now that we are nearly back to normal I can consider what to
print for the walls :-)
