The historian, writer, and politician Alan Clark - the elder son of Lord Clark of Civilisation - lived in Seend during the 1970s. Before moving to the eastern end of the village he lived next door to the Church of the Holy Cross and wrote a history of it. He described the church as 'a fine structure dating from about 1450 and situated on the south side of Seend ridge, with open views across the Lavingtons to the northern edge of Salisbury Plain which forms the skyline some ten miles distant. Visitors enter the churchyard through an elegant wrought iron gate surmounted by a suspended lantern. This was beautifully restored in 1962 in memory of Sylvia Cassels’.
Nikon D700 + Nikkor 28mm f/2 AI lens. This is a crop. I ought to have used a lens of longer focal length from the place I took this picture.
