Postcards of Local Churches
Part of our religious heritage
By John Layton
The area around and including Great Yarmouth has many religious buildings of interest, not the least being the Parish Church of St Nicholas, which can proudly boast of being the largest Parish Church in England, if not in Great Britain.
(The photograph shown here is of the old St Nicholas Church which was destroyed by enemy bombing in World War 2. The existing building was not erected until the 1950s.)
Here are a few postcards showing some of them.
