Inside The Church of St. James the Great, Dauntsey, Wiltshire



We really must return to Dauntsey to take some better photographs than these taken previously.  Quite a few were taken with a video camera and are of poor quality, and some were taken with a stills camera and scanned.  This splendid interior looks very lacking in our photographs but it is rich with history and is well cared for.
