Metfield St John the Baptist?s church
The tower of the church is 14th century with a seated figure keeping watch at each corner above the crenellated parapet. The clock, unusually, is placed above the apex of the nave roof facing the street to the east. The porch is 15th century with stone panels and Lierne-vault ceiling and has a parvise above. Both nave and chancel roofs are arch-braced, but the chancel is boarded and has the Metfield imp on one of the roof bosses. The font is 15th century octagonal typical East Anglian type on a square base, and still bears traces of its mediaeval paint. The western gallery houses the organ, the latest of which was installed in 1953. The rood stairs are still open but lead nowhere. The lower panels of the rood screen are now re-sited at the west end of the nave. The piscina is early 14th century. In the base of the tower is housed the 1719 clock mechanism.

Young hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus)
Hedgehogs can be found in abundance in wooded areas, pastures, parks and gardens throughout the UK Their dense covering of spines offers good protection when the animal is disturbed, rolling up in a tight ball covering its head and soft underside.
They are solitary, non-territorial animals, most active on nights after heavy rainfall when they eat slugs, snails, beetles and earthworms. In summer they
shelter during the day in temporary nests of leaves, moss and grass. By October and November, hedgehogs have dramatically put on weight in preparation for their hibernation. Their hibernation nests are typically situated under hedgerows, in old rabbit burrows, underneath compost heaps or even in garden sheds. This animal was found in St John the Baptist's > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2610907 churchyard.
