This gorgeous ⛪️ is dedicated to St Mary and St Blaise. Nothing remains of the earlier AS church, the present building dates from the early C12th & clues to its modification can still be read in its walls! N of the church lie the ruins of the Priory guesthouse #boxgrovepriory #stonemasonarymonday

Love this so much 😍 …off the top of my find paper plates….
