Talk:Church of St Mary and St Augustine, Stamford

OK, guys...
OK, guys. I've put something up on this building. Perhaps a little Too Much Information at this stage but I'll allow others to judge. Needs some pics but I (or another) can do that in due course. And to the other two contributors who were fiddling around with edits within moments of my putting up the page (and still fixing stuff myself) you're pretty quick off the mark!! Lonstan (talk)

Stations of the Cross
The comment about German POWs donating the Staions is very interesting and I would like to hear more about them in general but I have taken the liberty of reversing your change however, subject to discussion. I don’t personally go as far back as the 40s but (a) in the 1970s and 80s there was certainly still a framed notice in the church porch stating the donation had come from US service personnel, and (b) in my own London parish there is an identical set, so while they may have come from (probably a commercial church outlet in south) Germany, and even been somehow supported by Stamford-based German POWs, I can’t see how they would have the means or skills to produce them themselves. That is subject to my being corrected. Does anyone else out there know? Lonstan (talk) 14:39, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
