Description
The parish church of St Michael’s, Bray, beside the River Thames in Berkshire. Illustration from "Picturesque Europe - The British Isles" published by Cassell Petter & Galpin in 1875 (price 2/6d). An amusing folksong was written in the 18th century about a 'Vicar of Bray' who changed his religious allegiance to suit the politics of the time: it is supposedly based on the habits of a number of Bray vicars in the 16th and 17th centuries.
