A giant woolly version of St James's Church, Louth, housed in the church last year for the 500th anniversary :) See http://www.teamparishoflouth.org.uk/woolly-spires/ pic.twitter.com/gOc1H1Jm3z
was it wool that funded the churches of mid and south Lincs
Def helped a lot! Wool trade v important in the medieval period here :)
If everything goes well, look out soon for an article by Alan Kissane and myself on The Wool Trade and Lincs merchants.
Oh, now that sounds fascinating! Please do let me know more when you can! :)
Still at draft stage but presenting at IHR Late Medieval Seminar on 11 Nov. Idea then to send to "top" journal...
and from a different perspective, a few weeks ago - elegant and beautiful church :)pic.twitter.com/2AqOtJNvtV
Yes, isn't it just! :)
St Wulfram's at Grantham must come close, also in Lincolnshire
Just a bit shorter, 282.5 ft :) But also lovely :)
I was in Oundle the other day and they made this claim too!
It's tall, but alas 85ft shorter than Louth! :)
And certainly one of the most beautiful!
Agreed! :)
