Sanctuary #wootton 13

I’ve driven past this building many times. Apart from sounding like a hideout for a Doctor Who villain, a sign outside proclaims that it’s the oldest building in Warwickshire. From the outside, at a distance, it just looks like any other church. If you pass by early enough in the morning, you’ll see plenty of bunnies on its lawn. Once you’re up close, it looks fairly big but there are other nearby buildings that are bigger, but they’re not necessarily older. Its entrance has few tombstones which was withered away over the years. It’s a shame that it was closed so that we were denied the opportunity to look inside. The lawn and foliage are well looked after, though there’s few plants to attend to and the clock could do with some maintenance. It’s unclear whether its neighbouring mausoleum belongs to the church, the caravan park, or if it’s independent of the two.
