Nus Camp Leverington
A Memory of Leverington.
It was a hot sultry afternoon at NUS Camp Leverington and I had decided to walk into Wisbeach, and had just walked past this church. In the church grounds, under large shade trees, I heard a cricket match with people cheering - I wanted to go in and watch. In those days, to go into a Non-Catholic Church you would be 'damed for ever'. I have never forgotten this church.
Recently, I had the opportunity to get back to England and with time to spare, I found my way out to Wisbech,and found a sign post pointing to Leverington..
After many hours and asking people, I finally came back to Wisbech and found the Tourst Office. I was told 'Yes, there had been a church but it had been sold for development some twenty years ago'. What a disappointment.
The photo shown above... is that the same church?
