The first day of Kent's Division two season started at Canterbury today. Kent won the toss and Rob Key surprisingly elected to field.
Northants captain Nicky
Boje hit an unbeaten 77 as his side made 268-5. It was slow going, but the sun was pleasant as were the surroundings. Above James
Hockley avoids one of
Boje's rare attacking shots.
The Herring Gulls on the pavilion roof found ways of keeping entertained.
About seven miles from Canterbury is the tiny Hamlet of
Womenswold. Here the small 14
th Century church is another dedicated to St Margaret of Antioch. It sits on a small grassy mound and is without fence or wall.
The church is unusual, in having no side aisles and a large Chancel, where services are usually held. The
PCC is working on a scheme to replace the Victorian choir stalls with chairs to make a more comfortable space for worship, as well as improving access.
There are two services a month, including a sung Eucharist when the choir from
Barham join the congregation.
Next to the Church this picture book thatched cottage, named "The Cottage" caught my eye.
