Shadows Cast Within the Church.
Here stands the church of St Andrew at Great Dunham in West Norfolk. It is one of the few surviving churches in Norfolk, that pre-dates the Norman Conquest. It is dateable through a series of architectural 'clues', which excite Dave and I, but the details of which I will spare you here. I cannot begin to imagine the countless 'invisible' people who have passed through these doors over the years. However, I can be quite sure that this wonderful building has never been witness to such extraordinary scenes as those that took place in there today.
For this is a tale of intruigue, deception and, ultimately - MURDER! No ink is black enough to describe the darkness of the tale involving this little critter here, Binky. I am still too stunned and upset to provide you with a coherent account. However, during the next few days I will try and recount the dreadful end which Binky met here.

"I cannot begin to imagine the countless 'invisible' people who have passed through these doors". Wow, colin. No wonder you enjoy these old places so much. I'd never even thought of that. Almost sends shivers down my back.
Looking forward to hearing about Binky's adventures or misadventures as the case may be.
It is an awesome thought rosymosie! It is especially amazing once you know the story of an individual connected to a place. I may well blog about this. I think it is sad that historical imaginations are not more exercised within formal education.
