St Germain, Bobbingworth Church - This church isn't much to look at from the outside, and, if one paid much attention to Pevsner's write-up, one would probably not have bothered even getting out of the car for this church. Without further ado, though, I will say that this church is one of those pleasant surprises, which beholds a host of character.
