Many of you wanted to see the inside of Lancing College Chapel (from my previous post) — so here goes!
The chapel is very tall and narrow
With a lovely vaulted roof.
At the centre of the soaring pillars
Is the famous Rose Window,
Made out of more than 30,000 pieces of stained glass.
The hallway as you enter the chapel
Has a colourful roof
And a more modern stained glass window
That was dedicated by Archbishop Desmond Tutu in 2007
In honour of a Bishop, who was a former Lancing College pupil.
I can’t let you go without showing you
The beautiful warm stone of the chapel
In the lovely green setting of the South Downs.

Wonderful gothic aspects of the interior and the landscape of South Downs… I think I catched a “movement” as vision at the first picture… of course is a visual effect I guess related with the dimension of view displayed… not sure of… but anyway so interesting!! Warm greetings!

Hi Fi,
You will be pleased to know that the Zoo I visited has no bars. It’s an Open Range Zoo with many many acres of area for these endangered animals to roam as they please. 🙂 I don’t like caged animals either. Our tour was more like a safari into their domain. Some of the animals are quite tame as they have been hand-reared as part of breeding programs due to being “extinct in the wild”.
Thanks for your visits to my blog. I enjoy every comment. 🙂
