Original – St Luke's Church in Frampton Mansell was built in 1843 by Lord Bathurst. The church sits on the top of a deep valley within the Cotswolds. The Italian style design is by J. Parish. There are a set of original five stained glass windows within the apse with one dedicated to Christ and one each for the apostles Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. St Luke's Church is an English Heritage Grade II Listed Building

Reason: An attractive setting for quaint church with a lengthy lineage.

Support -- Quaint is a great description. I love how you've included the drop in front of the church, great for showing the environs. Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:19, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The rock retaining wall looks over processed - or is that just my eyes? Aaadddaaammm (talk) 10:01, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what you mean. This one is pretty much straight from RAW as I was quite enamoured of the natural lighting. Saffron Blaze (talk) 10:29, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I think that the angle of the sun makes the wall's surface particularly contrasty; I'm not seeing anything that jumps out as a sharpening or noise-suppression artifact. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 14:46, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Beautiful lighting. J Milburn (talk) 16:15, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Nicely taken, once again. I'd like to get out into the countryside a bit more and do something similar. There are a lot of beautiful old buildings (churches or otherwise) in pretty natural settings. You've clearly gone out of your way to find a pleasing composition.
