Approx 700 Years Difference.

Phil and I did not go with the other members of the Cambridge Camera Club today to the Swanage area, instead we traveled to Bridport and the West Bay area (allegedly in search of cake :)

During our travels we visited two churches. 

St Mary's in Bridport. Built early 13th Centry (ie after 1201) on the site of a previous saxon church. I spoke with two very nice ladies in the church and they explained a lot about the church and its community. 

Phil and I then traveled to West Bay. Famous of recent years as the location for the filming of the crime drama Brordchurch. After a walk around West Bay and an Ice Cream, Note a Herring Gull pinched Phil's ice cream :( but they did not get mine :), We visited St Johns Church. 

This was built in the 1930's and dedicated in 1939 as a 'chapel of ease'. This is a church building other than a Parish Church so people who cannot get to the Parish Church can attend.

Note - we are being fed so well at the accommodation we are staying at neither of us had cake.
