One of Ipswich's many derelict churches was set on fire earlier this week causing so much damage it may have to be demolished. The local paper's dramatic picture of the fire can be seen here.

Unfortunately when I went to take some pictures I was shooting right into the sun so they didn't come out as well as I'd hoped. However, LAZYWASP went along later in the day and his can be seen here

I think between us we have captured the event. I particularly like #2 with the sun light hitting the roof. Thanks also for the link!!! LAZYWASP · 2011-03-10: 02:55
