In Bispingen, Germany.

I’ve been staying in Gloucestershire for the last week, and yesterday I finally got a chance to visit St John the Baptist’s Church in Cirencester. With foundations that date from the 7th century, the church claims to be one of the “most elegant medieval churches in the county, if not the entire country”, and is notable for its numerous medieval chapels. It boasts several curiosities including the “Anne Boleyn cup”, a gilt silver goblet presented by Boleyn to her physician Dr Richard Masters in 1531 - but what really interested me was the stained glass. Buff.
