Cut benchmark and PA bolt on the north west buttress of the church tower.
A very pretty church in Stratford St Mary, quite visible from the busy A12, especially at night when the tower is lit by flood-lights.
"St Mary is the first Suffolk church that most visitors see, standing as it does immediately beside the flyover which thankfully allows access from village to church without crossing the carriageways. The church stands as a beacon on the Suffolk/Essex border, but it has also been ill-served by one of the least sympathetic Victorian restorations in either county, of which more in a moment."
