Palacio de Estoi Almost #WordlessWednesday

 The Palacio in the centre of Estoi was built in the 19th century and after being restored has been opened as a Pousada where you can stay. It is 10 kilometres north of Faro. 











You can also visit the gardens freely. The gardens are on three levels connected by staircases.







St Laurence Ludlow Cathedral of the Marches #StainedGlass

The church of St Laurence on the top of the hill in the town of Ludlow is the largest parish church in Shropshire.  With its beautiful stained glass windows, it is filled with light.  Around the walls are many fascinating monuments and acknowledgements.

Memorial to Edwatd Waties & his wife Martha Fox

The original church was built in the 11th century but there was major rebuilding of the nave in the middle of the 15th century when Ludlow was an important wool town.
The Jesse window dates from the 14th century but was restored in 1890
