| Belleau, St John the Baptist* |
On the east facing bank of
the church you can still find seashells marking the old coastline to the North
Sea. St John the Baptist church is of great antiquity since it was already
being built in the time of Edward II (early 1300s). This dates the church to
the time of Giotto and the start of the Renaissance in Italy. If you visit the Doges
Palace in Venice, inside there is a huge globe of the known world. On the map
of Great Britain there is no mention of London, with the only named place on
the map being Belleau.
Opening times:
Saturday 7.30am-8pm
Sunday 7.30am-8pm
