As and when...

The Vinegar Bible

This bible was printed in 1717 and used in St. Mary’s church until 1864.

It is known as a ‘Vinegar’ bible, because the word ‘vinegar’ is printed instead of the word ‘vineyard’, at the top of the page in St. Luke’s gospel, chapter 20.

This is on display in the St. Mary’s church in Chiddingstone.
