To north Essex for #FontsOnFriday, and the appropriately small-scale 15th Century font at Helions Bumpstead, appropriate for this dear little chocolate box of a church. 1/3

2/3 'to the Glory of God and in memory of Louisa Wix who died in infancy'

Another detail of the same window, by Clayton & Bell at Littlebury. The church depicted appears to be intended as that of nearby Great Bardfield, a coincidence perhaps.
