St. Mary's church, Woolpit, Suffolk

This is one of most attractive Suffolk churches, though its spire is more like a church from the fens. The tower and spire were only built in 1854 by R. M. Phipson, but the rest of the church dates from the 14th and 15th centuries. It has a magnificent south porch, which is due to money being given towards its construction in 1430 and 1452. Inside there is one of the most impressive double hammerbeam roofs in Suffolk.
