I spent the afternoon with colleagues at a symposium about opening church buildings up more to their surrounding communities (think "church is for life, not just on Sunday"). We were in the mid-19th-century church of St John Hyde Park. Most of its interior stonework—lofty gothic arches reaching up to a plainly rib-vaulted ceiling—is painted cool white, but there are areas of rich colour, notably in the reredos, part of which you see here.
