St BOTOLPH`S CHURCH in BOSTON, UK. #1

Back in 2014 I photographed St Botolph`s church in Boston uk, better known as Boston Stump. The day was a Sunday and unfortunately there was a service taking place, so we just took photographs of the outside of this beautiful church, vowing to go back mid week so we could take photo`s of the inside. Well after four years that's what we have done and I have to say it was fantastic, everything I was expecting and more. There was a lot of things to photograph that I have decided to show them in two parts, as I wanted to make shore you see everything in this fantastic church, part two will follow next blog. But first just a quick reminder of St Botolph`s Church.


The church is one of the largest parish churches in England and has one of the tallest medieval towers in the country standing 272 feet high. St Botolph`s church is a parish church in the church of England in Boston, Lincolnshire, UK. The interior space of the church is 20,070 square feet. Nave length is 242 feet and the nave`s width is 104 feet. The roof is supported by twelve pillars, 52 windows, 7 doors and a total of 365 steps to the top of the tower, 24 steps to the library and 60 steps to the roof.

    First of all, let me just say this church is simply gorgeous! Beautiful! Almost defies words. That roof is really something else. Don't think I have seen one like that and probably won't ever see another. Those arches are magnificent! Of course you know me and arches. Just love them. Not to mention the glass work. Whoa!!! I cannot wait to see the next installment of this fantastic church!
