hambleden church ... the d'oyley family

a horrid day using the satnav to get lost in the thames valley when a decent map might have saved hours ... i ventured into hambleden church to soothe my eyes for twenty minutes, although the exterior promised little ... and found yet another splendid family memorial ... from the 1630s this time
