St Mary's Church, Reculver
Currently encased in scaffolding.
Founded in the C7th, incorporating stone & tiles from the Roman fort in which it sits. The towers were a C12th addition.
Coastal erosion meant the building was almost completely demolished in 1809 📷 AH

Also, when I look for people's profile on the Mastodon App, the profiles are generally empty, but when I browse on my PC, there is a link to the person's profile on their server and I can see the complete profile, it might be one of your problem too.

A wonderful discovery in #Leeds could be a treasure trove of information about the #EarlyMedieval period.

An ancient lead coffin has been unearthed in a previously undiscovered, 1,600-year-old Leeds cemetery which could help unlock the secrets of one of the most significant periods in British history.

Conservation revealed a circa 14th-century high-status horse harness decorated with gilded studs emblazoned with rampant lions in sinister 🐴🦁

The Lewis Chessmen for #MedievalMonday. Characterful chess pieces with wonderfully expressive eyes, from a large gaming hoard discovered on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland, in 1831. Carved from walrus ivory c. 1150-1200. 📷 my own.
