Sullington Art Exhibition and rural St Mary's Church

The Sullington Art exhibition is held in a 16th century barn with a café, (which we didn't visit today) and features local artists exhibiting ceramics, wood work, paintings & jewellery. As well as visiting the barn we also went to look at the Church of St Mary's but sadly it was closed. I hope you'll enjoy looking around with us.
If you would like to leave a comment I'd love that as I read and reply to every one.
Thank you for watching if you do.

Thank you Lynn, I enjoyed seeing the church

I’m just sorry it wasn’t open John. We’ve been there many times and never been lucky enough to see inside. Thank you for watching 🥰

Hi Lynn Richard and Ky oh what a lovely tranquil setting the church is set in the lovely rolling hills beautiful Loved the barn that the art was set in the beautiful wood work in the roof thats an art in it's self thanks for the video Lynn great have a good week 😀 ❤x

[@lynnb_and_ky_springer_spaniel]

Oh yes Fiona, it really is, the birdsong there is amazing and I love visiting this area. The art was really nice to see, but didn't buy anything this time. Thank you for watching, I hope you are keeping well 🥰

Oh, a barn filled with old tractors! Reminds me of my sister's Dorset barn. Nice art works, quite a creative community there. Isn't this the barn where the Gathering Lights singers gather periodically? Its a great space, for sure!

[@lynnb_and_ky_springer_spaniel]

It's lovely there Andrew, you'd love it! The barn they sing at is behind in the Tithe barn, which is equally as beautiful. I love places like this which retain all the original machinery and features; just a shame the church is nearly always closed 🥲 Thanks for watching and leaving your comment, which I appreciate a lot 🥰

What a lovely church building Lynn what a shame it was closed. Good choice of music on the video.

[@lynnb_and_ky_springer_spaniel]

Oh yes David, it's really lovely but we have yet to find it open. It's so sad when churches are closed up in the daytimes; I can understand they close in the evenings and overnight, but people want to visit, it's sad. Thank you so much for watching 🥰 I'm glad you enjoyed it David

It is so sad when Churches have to be locked, but it is a sign of the times I suppose? Our Church in the village here is kept locked. What a wonderful building to have the art exhibition in. Blessings from a warm and sunny West Devon for a change, and from Jilly & Madge xxx

[@lynnb_and_ky_springer_spaniel]

It really is sad Jilly, upsets me to think of the reasons why they have to close the doors 😪 Our Church is always open in the daytime and Ky and I go in most days, it's such a peaceful place to sit quietly and be in the moment. Oh yes, the barn is really amazing and it's kept immaculately. The café there is nice, but we'd already had a drink so didn't stop for our usual cuppa. Thank you so much for watching. I'm so pleased you and Madge have nice weather there like us, for a change. Blessings xx🥰

Hi Lynn nice church👌

[@lynnb_and_ky_springer_spaniel]

Thanks for watching Roy 🥰 It's a shame we couldn't go inside

[@JH-W]

Hi Lynn, if I’d known you were visiting I’d have come to meet you. So very close to us x

[@lynnb_and_ky_springer_spaniel]

Hi Jacqui, it's so nice of you to join us. If we had had more time it would've been so lovely to meet up with you; we just stopped by on our way back from Amberley Castle (the previous video made there). I'll send you an e mail. It's so funny though, I did think it may have been you in the barn as the lady there told me she had two retrievers. It was then I saw her name badge and realised it wasn't you after all. Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@jeanblemings5352]

I have never found that church open either though the view is always worth the visit! I had wondered if the cafe was open as I have never coincided with it being open but I see from your reply to another comment it was!

[@lynnb_and_ky_springer_spaniel]

Quite right Jean, the views are gorgeous aren't they. I wish the Church had been open, it's such a shame when they are closed. The café opens on certain days which I think are Thursday to Sunday, it's nice, you can sit inside or out, at the back. Thanks for watching and leaving your comment 🥰

[@janicemaclean6136]

Looks familiar. Did you take me there? Interesting place.

[@lynnb_and_ky_springer_spaniel]

Yes, we did go there and had a drink in the garden overlooking the tithe barn
