Having grown up in Cumbria and now living in the south east, I fully appreciate the differences! Very real! To be honest, even moving from the north west to the north east for uni surprised me with weather patterns…not warmer from west to east, but absolutely drier and brighter.

There’s a real sense of calm and serenity in the architecture of the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Harlton, Cambridgeshire - even just in little snippets of it, like this 🥰
I don’t know any details but yes, looks like a replacement.
