I went down to London on Sunday to visit some friends with my Wife and we met my Wife's best friend at the Church she is a member of and while she and my better half chatted I was having a chin wag with two ladies who were standing near the main door into the Church.
One of the ladies pointed out a plaque on the inside of the door which related to the Civil War. It transpires that the door itself dates back to 1300 and something, but in 1950 it had been removed for some much needed maintenance. During the work two Cromwellian bullets were removed from the door, one of which I'm told is still kept at the Church, I forgot to ask if I could take a look at the bullet so that's something I hope to do next year.
