Interiors








                                             An amazing chapel interior in Guernsey, one 
                                                       of the Channel Islands





 


The entire interior of this small chapel
is a mosaic decorated with china, shells and tiles.
All of it hand decorated by a monk who built it
in the 1920s.



The upkeep is never ending, it is kept looking as it is by a group of volunteers 
mostly from the local school.  The china being donated by many including Wedgwood China Co.  It must be painstaking work as the interior is only able to accommodate about 4 or 5 people at a time.

                                                                     

                                        Although this is an interior based theme I just had to show you the exterior which is decorated in the same way as the interior, make sure you duck as you go in, the doorway is very low!
