Thanks to Neil Rhind for this photo from Sunday’s 1711 walk, which I mentioned in Friday’s Daily Photo.

Rev Christopher Moody, Vicar of St Alfege, Greenwich, gives his every blessing on Peter Dodge and his stalwart long-distance walking team. They intend to visit 12 of the surviving churches, built as a result of the 1711 50 New Churches Act, seventeen and a half miles later. They started at St Alfege, and intend to finish (rain notwithstanding) at St John’s Smith Square, encompassing inter alia, St Ann, Limehouse and St George’s, Bloomsbury. This special event marks exactly the date that the Act was given assent by Queen Anne: 12 June 1711.
