Looks old by our (USA) standards. Is the name Lugwardine tied to the name or the River Lugg? Yes it is the parish that borders the Lugg at this point. The church dates from the 12 th century but has had numerous alterations over the centuries. This window dates from the earliest time I think but the glass is much newer live.staticflickr.com/65535/52711007190_bdbea66092_c.jpg

Yes, it certainly is ~ like a perfect glimpse of an older time that we're somehow privileged to see.
Only now seeing the beautiful stained glass picture. I love the subtle light in it.

I took this today at the 12th c. hermitage L'Eramo di Montecasale in the hills above Sansepolcro in Tuscany. The garden in the foreground was tended by St. Francis. Well worth visiting, it's surrounded by the most beautiful wilderness. A few minutes after I snapped this, it began bucketing down in a truly Biblical manner.

Gorgeous, beautifully composed photograph that also conveys the awe of glimpsing a piece of the 13th century in an untamed landscape.

I'm a little embarrassed by how much time I spent going this way and that to frame it until I liked it. Thank you for noticing.

Don't be embarrassed...you have delivered one of the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. Definitely for the "muted colours" thread, with the smudges of lilac and yellow, and contrasting traceries of bare branches and twigs just perfect. Also, it is a "Festival of diagonal lines" I love it!
