St. Anne's, Royton

This is the church where I used to be vicar.

Pretty little building.

Ah, so perhaps just like any former place of work, then?

Is there a ban on interior photography, or can you just not get a decent picture in the lighting conditions?

"Ah, so perhaps just like any former place of work, then?"

Yes, exactly. It's just a rather decorative office building.

I didn't go inside because they keep it locked.

Well put. By the way, I always thought it strange that they keep the doors to the church locked.

This is the norm over here. We're an irreligious society and churches run a high risk of being robbed and vandalised.
