You were lucky to photograph a rowan with a full displays of berries. The one in my garden is stripped by the birds in days.<br /><br />One tiny correction, St Mary's is Church of England not RC, I hadn't realised that it was shared with a Catholic congregation now. As an aside the repairs visible in your third photo were done by a lady stonemason who I dated for a short while.Peterhttp://folkphotos.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1799317821178182526.post-34066421173125420612015-08-12T00:06:12.495-04:002015-08-12T00:06:12.495-04:00Miss Pat, I'm so glad you stopped by Sweet So...Miss Pat, I'm so glad you stopped by Sweet Southern Days for a trip to the charming village of Bampton in England.

That's just how I imagine England to be, beautiful gardens everywhere! :) The church was so beautiful, both inside and out! Must have felt surreal to be standing in the same place you saw featured in the scenes on Downton Abbey! I was enchanted by the Rowan tree. I've never seen or heard about those, but they are gorgeous covered in all those red berries. What a wonderful tree! Thanks for taking us along on your tour!
