The tiny entrance to St Mary's Fawsley, Northamptonshire.
The tiny entrance to St Mary's Fawsley, Northamptonshire.

This tiny medieval north door is reached via an equally small footbridge over a miniature 'haha' that protects the church, and you guessed it, its equally small graveyard from the ever present sheep.

Very much an Alice in Wonderland moment squeezing though here, and as small as it is, it's difficult to open the door fully as it's about 5 inches thick, made of solid oak with iron fittings and is so heavy I thought at first someone was on the other side pushing against it as a joke.
I managed to get momentarily jammed with my rucksack and sort of semi exploded into a thankfully deserted church.
