Views of St. Boniface Church, Bunbury 2005


The Church on a rather gloomy overcast day. The main church was built in 1320 and remodelled in 1490.


More like a Cathedral than a village church. The font, on the right, only dates from 1660, so not the one used for Robert Redrup in 1537


Sir Hugh de Calveley who endowed the Church in 1385-6


Hazel sitting in the Ridley Chapel, which was begun in 1527, 10 years before her 10G grandfather, Robert Redrup, was born in the village, and presumably baptised in this church.


Looking back from the Ridley Chapel to the Chancel. Apparently the art work is all original 16th century.


The outside of the Ridley Chapel, on the left, the only addition to the 1490 design of the church. The huge scale of this village church can be judged from the figure just in front of the chapel.


Hazel prowling the graveyards again.


Some old houses through the church gate.


The village pub, left, from the churchyard with an old looking house in the middle and some newer ones to the right.
