The Improved Use of Icons in a Church Near You

There are, it seems to me, two limitations to the Church of England "A Church Near You" website.

The first is in the title - why just the Church of England? Why not churches in general? Would that be so hard? A bit of ecumenism? Why not include Beaker People, The Tea Light Evangelicals and the Salisbury Snake-handlers?

Get the first limitation fixed, and the second limitation would become more obvious. Let me explain. Here is the entry for St James, Husborne Crawley.

You know. Don't get me wrong. Handy to know that guide dogs for the blind are welcome (do you know of any place in England that has a sign saying "No Guide Dogs"? But in these multicultural, pick-and-mix, post-modern days, they're not necessarily enough. 

So here are the Beaker recommended additional A Church Near You Icons. Let's hope you find just the place for you.

  1. It would save an awful lot of pixels if you indicated the church(es?) where you do not need to beware of the flower arrangers.
