To me, this 100–year–old church has a castle like appearance. I can imagine the road as a river and see a drawbridge across it, suspended from the piers either side of the archway. It looks a bit too defensive to be a church and as a child, I thought it was rather imposing. I can honestly say that I can never remember seeing anyone going in or out.
