St Buryan Church, Cornwall

In Oct '23, Nigel Cotterill replaced Mike Austin's July '12 GEV with an original for which I had the temerity to suggest that it was not quite the correct angle... Nigel had the grace to improve it with another visit resulting in pure perfection! (SJ)

St Buryan, Penzance.

Mike Austin didn't risk life and limb! (Pic may not be showing correctly, and if it was a Google image as others are, it will be replaced, one hopes, soon)

Opposite the church.

Nigel again replaces the GEV. (SJ)

St Buryan.

A nice match sent in by Adrian Turner (SJ).

Another GEV replacement by Nigel Cotterill. (SJ)

Probably the same place.
