the "stave" walls

although known mostly for being a rare survival in UK of a "stave" church, more common in Scandinavian countries, this delightful little church is composed of later re-workings from the C14 & C15th.

Half tree trunks dating from around 1000CE below later C14th roof

Incredibly and stunning about how 1000 year old wooden planks look like. Excellent photo!
