A bit of Baroque does us all a power of good |
St Pauls Warden Village
Up a small lane close to a promising looking pub is All
Saints where the Queen Mother was baptised. Outside is all ordered and
Perpendicular, unflustered by the EasyJets passing overhead.
Inside there is ‘wedding-cake’ like Baroque. In 1727 a Screen was erected and decorated in
white and cotton candy mint green. Magnificent!
Rosie the Puppy with Simon Jenkins |
All Saints, Pauls Warden is a perfect start to the
‘churching’ tour of Hertfordshire on which Rosie the puppy and I were embarked.

Hertfordshire has some wonderful churches in a sliver of countryside between the M1 (west) and the A1 (to the East) so Rosie and I are setting out to discover these places with the help of a pen, Moleskine, a copy of England's Thousand Best Churches, and some treats for Rosie when she is especially good.
