The Royal Garrison Church was originally part of a hospital founded in 1212 by the Bishop of Winchester. The nave housed the sick while the chancel served as the hospital's chapel. The building later served as part of the Governor of Portsmouth's residence before being restored in the 1860s. Although the nave was badly damaged in a 1941 fire bombing raid on Portsmouth, the chancel remains roofed and furnished.

HFF everyone. I hope you all have a lovely weekend. Thanks to all who have commented on and/or left yellow stars on my images over the past week.

It's not open at the moment because of Covid-19, but normally the chancel functions fully as a church. The nave is not roofed but have been re-paved with seats and benches arranged around the sides. It is often used for open air weddings.

Glad you like it Tanja.........and thanks.
