Quod oculus meus videt

By GrahamColling

Origins: Bloxwich

You feel a sense of origin when the village you live in was mentioned in the Domesday Book.  Blocca's Village, from which the modern name Bloxwich derived had, according to the book just 9.3 households, made up of 16 villagers, 11 small holders and 1 slave!

I had an early visit to the doctors' surgery so walked up via the parish church, taking this photo from low down to make for a high contrast image.
