All Saints Church, Birchington Kent

 All Saints Church 

Date August | Location  birchington | delmoished - No 

We were in Birchington for the day because we were going to a farm, and we happened to walk past this church. By chance, we decided to check it out. Once we walked inside, we were greeted by a local who owned the church, and we spoke with them before taking some photos. There were many people coming in and out of the church to have a look. I later learned that it is only open at set times during the day, so I guess I was lucky since this visit wasn't even planned. It is said that the church is one of the oldest buildings in Birchington and that it may have stood there since Saxon times. Between 1863 and 1883, the Victorians made major renovations. The building is believed to be Grade II listed.

HMS Belfast - London

 HMS Belfast 

Date : July | Location London | Delmoished  - NO 

I can’t say enough about HMS Belfast—WOW, this ship was incredible! We spent about three to four hours exploring almost every area that was open to the public. Even when it got busy, there was still plenty of space to enjoy. This ship has so much to offer! The little café on board is nice too, although it’s a bit on the expensive side (but this is London, after all). Overall, the experience on this ship was amazing, and I definitely want to go back when I get the chance.

HMS Belfast was built in 1936 and set sail in 1938. It served for around 25 years before retiring in 1963. It was then acquired by the Imperial War Museum and opened to the public as a museum in 1971.

Wellington Arch - london

 Wellington Arch 

Date July | Location - London | Delmoihed - No 

Every time I'm in London, I've passed this building without realizing you could go inside. When I discovered it was managed by English Heritage, I took the chance to go in. My daughter and I decided to check it out while we were in London. The only downside was that it was raining, but that's British weather for you! 

 

Overall, we didn't spend much time inside, as my daughter was primarily interested in getting her pop badge and stamp for her lanyard. However, there was a pretty cool view from the top.

 

I learned that the arch is one of London's well-known landmarks. It was built between 1825 and 1826 and was originally meant to be an entrance to Buckingham Palace, but it was moved to its current location afterward. The building is also a Grade I listed structure.
