The C17 font at St Martin within Ludgate, beautifully cared for and still clearly inscribed with the Greek palindrome ΝΙΨΟΝ ΑΝΟΜΗΜΑΤΑ ΜΗ ΜΟΝΑΝ ΟΨΙΝ (wash the sins, not just the face) #FontsonFriday #FridayFont #WrenChurches

The pulpit of St Magnus the Martyr, #London Bridge for #SundaySermons Originally designed by William Grey, one of Christopher Wren's joiners, it was opened up and had its sounding board added during Martin Travers' restoration of the #church in 1924.

The High Street entrance to All Souls College #Oxford (with founders Henry Chichele and Henry VI safely netted in to stop them wandering off and causing mischief when no-one's looking) #AdoorableThursday

I still have the copies of Peepo and Each Peach Pear Plum that my parents read me when I was tiny, and they were two of the first books I bought for (in nice durable card editions!) and read to my son 😢

Another depiction of St Margaret for #StainedGlassSunday - this one is from the #church of St Magnus the Martyr (#London Bridge) and is one of four 1950s windows commemorating churches lost in in 1666 (the Great Fire monument now stands on the site of St Margaret's church)

In many early medieval calendars, 7 August - halfway between midsummer and the autumnal equinox - marks the beginning of a new season. It's the first day of autumn, when the earth is rich with the abundance of the harvest. Some Anglo-Saxon harvest poetry: aclerkofoxford.blogspot.com/2016/08/on-hrf…
