Subject: RE: BS: the most beautiful building in Britain?
I'm an atheist medieval church fiend. Here's to St Mary and St David, Kilpeck - the jewel in the crown of the Herefordshire Romanesque, circa 1140, that looks like it was carved last week. The first time I went there I was expecting Rosslyn scale palaver & gift shops - what I found was a deserted farmyard and a perfect summer day of unspoiled excellence when I had the place to myself for three hours.

Another favourite : All Saints, Tudeley for the windows alone.
