St.Mary's Convent & end of St Mary's RC Church, Burnley
According to rhe pedia of Wiki it ;
"was built to designs by Weightman and Hadfield, which included a tall spire that was never built. The adjoining convent was founded in 1872 by the Sisters of Mercy. The church opened at the beginning of August 1849 amid scenes of pageantry and splendour, the entire church having been decked with flowers. Several bishops were present including Bishop Brown representing Lancashire, Bishop Briggs representing Yorkshire and Dr J Brown of Wales. Pontifical High Mass was celebrated after the singing of Terce, with an orchestral and choral setting of Haydn's Grand Mass No. 1. After the service over a hundred guests were given refreshment at the Bull Inn."

@Willd I see from your posts on the photo gallery you were in North Buckinghamshire. I have avoided the area in recent years because of the amount of rail construction traffic (HS2 and the East West Project) on formerly quiet country roads .Is it OK to return? .

Not sure, I was quite a bit further East (Wingrave in the bottom right below) and came down the A5. It does cause me quite a few issues more locally though, on the stretch between Brackley and Coventry :smile:
