One of England's finest early 17th-century monuments, erected in 1621 at St Leonard's, Apethorpe (Northamptonshire), commemorates Sir Anthony and Grace Mildmay. It is probably by Maximilian Colt. Number 212 in "Country Church Monuments".

Like a rocket. This is the Sykes Monument at Garton in the East Riding of Yorkshire. It is 37 metres high and was built in 1865, in memory of Sir Tatton Sykes, 4th Baronet (1772-1863), by "those who loved him as a friend and honoured him as a landlord".

Delightful late-15th century painted birds perch among foliage and flowers on the dado of the screen to the Conyers Chapel in Hornby church, North Riding of Yorkshire. The painting is full of life and movement.

Arkangeli (Archangels) - They are represented by St Michael. He wears a girdle of bells. He stands on a citadel and holds a mace in his right hand and a sword in his left.

Troni (Thrones) - He has six wings and is crowned with a wreath of golden oak leaves. He holds a pair of scales in his right hand and a throne upon clouds in his left.

The exceptionally fine rood screen at Barton Turf, Norfolk. From the last quarter of the 15th century. The paintings are well preserved with minimal iconoclastic damage. The screen depicts Saints and Heavenly Hierarchies, named on the top rail. The detailed pictures show:

Though the inscription was defaced, it was later replaced. See Lancashire Archives: "Dispute as to a monument to Colonel Birch." DDKE/acc. 7840 HMC/828. Number 77 in "Country Church Monuments".

Some villagers, including servants of John Birch's son (who had erected the monument), came armed with clubs and threatened the Bishop's men. A serious assault occurred in the churchyard, and the Bishop's party came under further attack as they left the village.

The inscription on his monument at Weobley (Herefordshire) was considered a slight against Charles I and, at the instigation of the minister and churchwardens, the Bishop of Hereford went to Weobley in May 1694 to supervise the defacement of the panel.

The monument that caused a riot. Colonel John Birch (d.1691) supported Parliament during the Civil War and became a captain in the Bristol Militia. His greatest military achievement was the capture of Hereford in 1645 after which he became governor of the city.

It was saved after much of the medieval glass from Salisbury Cathedral was thrown into the town ditch during James Wyatt's brutal restoration of the church in 1788–91. This panel greatly influenced the artist John Piper (1903-1992).

An amazing survival. This panel dates from c.1230 and depicts the stoning to death of St Stephen. The text below the figures is in Lombardic letters and reads ‘STEPHANUS ORANS EXPIRAT’ (Stephen dies while praying). The panel is in Grateley church, Hampshire.

Change / no change. Two scenes from the medieval wall paintings in the church at Hailes, Gloucestershire; St Katherine and an owl. The photographs on the left were taken in 1972, while those on the right are from 2012, respectively. There appears to be little deterioration.

Church on a tor. St Michael de Rupe, a 12th-century church atop Brent Tor, Devon. The church is open for visitors and is one of the highest working churches in the United Kingdom.

It was designed by artist and designer Geoffrey Webb. The upper panels depict a nativity scene; the leftmost panel shows Carroll accompanied by Alice Liddell. The lower panels have characters after based on the illustrations by John Tenniel from Carroll's books.

The "Lewis Carroll" window at Daresbury, Cheshire. Erected in 1935 from funds raised in 1932 to celebrate the centenary of the birth of Charles Dodgson (better known by his pen name, Lewis Carroll).
