"Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in." Leonard Cohen

How lovely is this church?

Another from my *Pocketable Churches* series — All Saints', Billesley, Warwickshire.

No other cathedral feels so organically grown from the earth itself — its lantern tower one of the most verdant
