A meeting at a suburban church I would never normally visit. The church is at NZ293672, and has a website. It was built in 1955-6, the architect was G.E. Charlewood FRIBA of Newcastle upon Tyne.
It is a nice interior, with fittings of American oak. The pews and doors were hand-crafted by apprentices from the Swan Hunter shipyard.
I don’t know who did the Christ behind the altar – I probably shouldn’t say that it reminds me of the dementors in Harry Potter …
Nice wood in the Lady Chapel, and some war memorials. This is a church that keeps its crib up until Candlemas.
Why is there a cabbage patch outside? A reference to Jeremiah 10.5 (look it up!).
