More about this scene

The village of Lower Penn was once owned by Lady Godiva, and was formerly known as Nether Penn. It lies a little to the west of Penn, just across the county border in Staffordshire (where Penn also used to belong, of course). The seemingly unstoppable tide of Wolverhampton laps at its toes, but it has so far avoided being engulfed.

I used to love visiting this beautiful little church. It was so tiny and always so cold. If I remember rightly, on the opposite side of the road was a tiny little post office (almost like it was in someone's house).
