Baptist Church, Colchester, England

This is another photograph from our brief summer 2016 one-day visit to the town of Colchester, England — a short train trip from London, where we were staying for about a week. We weren’t really sure what we would find in this town, so when we arrived on the train we simply got off and started wandering. Of course, breakfast was near the top of our agenda. After that we walked through the large park near and in back of the town castle.

Eventually we left the park and spent a few hours slowly wandering the narrow streets of the town. Much of it was, frankly, somewhat nondescript. But every so often something interesting would turn up: the ruins of an old church, and outdoor restaurant along a narrow street, and this very business-like and foursquare Baptist church with its striking blue door.
