Church Hall, Marcham
An Englishman's church hall is his castle.
Battlements and lions (and a saint) ornament this brick hall in Marcham's main street.
I have put in a supplemental of one of the lions. They're rather splendid. Image
Incidentally, Marcham apparently comes from Saxon "Merceham" meaning place where celery grows.
Update:- In a previous caption I expressed some doubt re. the above but got this mail from a reader "Wild celery derivation is true (it still grows there if you know where to look). I used to live in the village." So, Celery it is, and caption modified accordingly. Thank you.
Update 2:- from the foundation stone on the front of the building, which reads :-
AD 1903
Marcham Church Institute
This stone was laid December 6th
The Feast of St. Nicholas.
So that would be who the saint is, then.
