St Martin, Westmeston, East Sussex - 9th January 2004

It had stopped raining when we reached Westmeston, although was still rather overcast. This is the north side of the church.

The parish is joined with Streat.

We liked these simple windows which are in the east wall. The one of the flower is in memory of David Sidney Lambert, Rear Admiral, K.C.B., O.B.E., Twin brother of Ralph, 1885 1966.  The one of the leaf is in memory of Anthony Poignand Lambert, eldest son of Major General  W Lambert, C.B., 1875 - 1966.

Here are the font and organ, which is situated to the east of the chancel, with the bass pipes in the vestry.  The instrument wasn't locked and I was very tempted to try a hymn - but restrained myself not having permission!
