The postcard of "Stebbings" Church had been on the website
for rather a long time, listed under Stebbing, Essex. The Rev. Tim Goodbody, of
Stebbing, has been in touch to say that this isn't his church. I listed it under
Stebbing rather than Stebbings because I couldn't find any trace of a Stebbings
place-name in the UK, and under Essex, because I could find only one Stebbing.
We have Sue Hedger to thank for solving this mystery - it is in fact Stubbings,
in Berkshire. Sue says she isn't aware of a name change, so this has to be lain
at the door of the postcard manufacturer for getting it wrong! From an old postcard, Bulman

Sutton Courtenay, Oxfordshire, All Saints -
previously in the "Unknown" section. Peter Wenham had a photo of a village scene. Apart from
guessing that it is probably in the southern half of England, there were no
obvious clues to pinpoint it - though Peter had sent in other named photos from
Suffolk and Devon. Thanks to Simon Davies for the identification.

Swingfield, Kent, the Old Templar
Preceptory. This old illustration comes (Colin thinks) from a Folkestone
newspaper late in Victoria's reign, reproduced from an earlier book. Whether it
is an artist's impression or an accurate reproduction is unknown. This
link describes it as a "Hospittaler parish church", so a Templar
connection is at least plausible. Illustration from Colin Waters' Collection.
