St Andrew's Sonning Berkshire. Henry Woodyer's spectacular 1875 reredos comprising saints is unusual for this area. Woodyer had previously engaged in a comprehensive reorganisation of the nave in 1852. The roof painting is by Bodley between 1903 - 1906.

Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky, The flying cloud, the frosty light: The year is dying in the night; Ring out, wild bells, and let him die. Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go; Ring out the false, ring in the true.

One of Trinity’s longest traditions is the annual signing of the Admissions Book. Today, 266 new students will inscribe their names in College history by signing the book themselves. ✍🏾 The images show poet Lord Alfred Tennyson’s entry from 1827, along with personal details written in his own hand.
