An attractive church
St Mary's Priory Church的点评
点评：This is a big church – almost too big to photograph from the outside. Set at the top of the town near the castle, it was originally a Priory. After the Dissolution of the Monasteries, it became the parish church.
The church was substantially rebuilt in the C19th. Only the tower and spire were kept, although part of the original masonry can be seen at the west end.
It was designed to seat 1000 worshipers. Part of the rood screen has been moved from across the chancel to the back of the nave, forming an attractive screen. The rood cross still hangs in the chancel. The rather dark painting behind the altar depicts the Adoration of the Magi.
The Memorial chapel is at the end of the north aisle. The Lady Chapel behind a screen is at the end of the south aisle.
One ofd the old bells is dsisplayed at trhe bck of the church. A sign says this was used as a fire bell and rung by a wire hanging down the outside if the church. By the entrance is an old stone stoup for holy water, on a modern wooden stand.
Perhaps the most significant feature of the church are the stained glass windows designed by CE Kempe.
This probably doesn’t rank as a ‘must see’ church although it is attractive and worth having a look if at the top end of the town.

翻译：这是一座宏伟的教堂——几乎大到从外面都难以拍摄。它坐落在小镇高处，靠近城堡，最初是一座修道院。修道院解散后，它成为了教区教堂。
教堂在19世纪进行了大规模重建。虽然在西端还能看到部分原始的石砌结构，但只保留了塔楼和尖顶。
教堂的设计可容纳1000名信徒。圣坛屏风的一部分从圣坛对面移到了中殿后部，形成了一个美观的屏风。圣坛十字架仍然悬挂在圣坛内。祭坛后方的一幅色调较暗的画作描绘了三博士朝拜的场景。
纪念小堂位于北侧走廊的尽头。圣母小堂位于南侧走廊的尽头，由屏风隔开。
教堂后部陈列着一口古老的钟。一块牌子上写着，这曾被用作消防钟，通过教堂外垂下的电线敲响。入口处有一个古老的石制圣水钵，放在一个现代的木制支架上。
教堂最引人注目的或许是C.E. Kempe设计的彩色玻璃窗。
虽然这座教堂可能算不上“必游之地”，但它确实很吸引人，如果你正好在镇子的北端，不妨去看看。
