St John the Baptist, Newton

 

This week the Church Explorer starts his epic tour of Wales and Hereford were I visited 12 churches in two days. I'm not starting  how I normally would in the order the churches were visited but with the two churches I quickly stopped off at. The first is St John the Balptist, Newton which was where I mistakenly ended up while looking for another, I basically turned right instead of left

Not much history to find on the Hamlet. After stopping near the church going through the gate leads you to the west end

South side view with the churchyard

Around the north side and more churchyard

Churchyard looking east on the south side

West to the church rooms which had solar panels on the roof

From the tower looking to the north side of the churchyard

 
  Inside looking down the nave
 
 
 The font which was just beside me when I took the last photo. 
 
  
 
That's it a nice little church I just wish I had thought to take a few more inside.
Just a note but The Church Explorer went to over 1000000 views on Friday. I’d like to say it was people looking at my blog but I feel most of the hits were AI bots but those of you why do read my blog Thank You

Till next time have a peaceful week
