More about this scene
On the other side of the church lie the marshes of the Blyth estuary, which is why this magnificent church is known as the Queen of the Marshes. On Sunday 4 August 1577, the church was 'visited' by a thunderstorm and a black dog - during the visitation two members of the congregation died. The 17th-century Church Farm (centre), with its brick end wall and gables, was thatched at the time of the photograph.
