Godalming parish church has a splendid wooden spire, but I didn't take a picture because it was raining and I once fritzed a camera by snapping in the rain and I don't want to do that again. It's a big church, roomy and comfortless. Medieval wall paintings- quite a lot of them- turned up in the 1840s and were promptly destroyed. The only one that got away did so because it was hiding in a blocked up arch and wasn't found till later. This is it. It depicts John the Baptist, holding the Lamb of God and is more than life size.
