We had explored Sunday October 2nd enchanted lakeside forests under the timeless guardianship of ruined castles. 11.00am. We have fallen in love with the cosy rented stone cottage with its low ceilings, open fire, followed by Harvest Lunch. whistling draughts and cheeky midnight biscuit-munching mice. The harvest was late there; the familiar tracks of combine and grain trailer seemed out of St Paul’s Church, Gorefield place as they tipped and turned over hills and vales, whose contours paraphrase the nearby th breakers. Sunday October 9 A return to fenland, through the endless flat fields of Lincolnshire, seems an anticlimax, and 10.00am. yet, holidays in beautiful places so different to our own, make us remember how strange our followed by Harvest Supper at 6.30pm own homes appear to visitors’ eyes.

GUYHIRN CHAPEL Guyhirn, Cambridgeshire

A stone over the door records the date 1660 and the initials ‘RP’. Whatever fascinating riddle those initials may present to the historian, it is surely the date that is significant, and which endows this little place with an importance out of all proportion to its size and location. The year 1660 was a turning point unique in English history. It was the year in which England ceased to be a Commonwealth and reverted, following the death of Oliver Cromwell in 1658, the subsequent retirement of Richard Cromwell, his son and successor as Lord Protector, and the accession of King Charles II, to what it had always been and has remained since, a monarchy. So Guyhirn Chapel has the rare distinction of embodying that turbulent period. Front cover: Exterior from the south (Kate Weaver) Left: The Pulpit (Kate Weaver ) 2 Exterior from the north-west (Christopher Dalton) Exterior from the south-west (Christopher Dalton) 3 What makes the chapel of special interest, forms of worship with which it was associated, non-attendance at church on the Lord’s Day black gown and contrasting white ‘Genevan’ however, must surely be the fact that it was illegal, whilst the Conventicle Act passed two was punishable at one time by a heavy ﬁne.
