Saturday 1.


Yesterday, on our way home from Ipswich we did a slight detour through a village we lived in thirty some- odd years ago, Bramford, and popped into the church to see if it was as pleasant as we remembered it. One thing I'd almost forgotten was the above inscription in the face of a pillar just over the poor box. It reads :-

Remember Ye Por,
The Scripture doth record
What to them is geven
Is lent unto the Lord.
        1591.

This charming little verse is inscribed into the plaster and painted, and although now very faded is still perfectly legible.

Must stop and do some work now.
