On the face of it an almost pointless visit to the Church of the Ascension, lnk, except it's not because here's a tin tabernacle and a rather grand one - my third, the other two being Littlebury Green and Old Heath in Essex - and that makes it in and of its self interesting. I think I'm right in saying that this is Herts' only extant tin tabernacle and know for sure that survivors are rare; so this was a treat.

Overlooked by Pevsner & Mee which, I suppose, reflects a change in architectural imperatives.
