St Mary, Slough

Image: © Stephen Richards Taken: 26 Jun 2011

In an Early English Gothic style with an impressive spire with flying buttresses and pinnacles. Most of what is seen today is the product of two building stages - John Oldrid Scott in 1876-78, and 1911-13 from whence the tower dates. Grade II* listed. Above is an unusual (to me at least) cloud formation. Is it altocumulus? Fellow Geographer Derek Harper suggests Altocumulus floccus or Cirrus floccus.
