When we arrived at church today, the first thing we saw were these beautiful Daffodils in bloom in the planter out in front of the church. It really brightened a gray day. This is St. Brigid's Church in Westbury where we have been parishioners for perhaps 15 years now. It is a beautiful church, and it was built in 1915 in 12th Century Romanesque/Norman style. The stone used to built it was from the bedrock being removed from Manhattan as the subways were being dug. Please click on this picture to see it in more detail.

Beautiful stone work and church. Daffodils always brighten the day and make me smile.

I agree. The stone church is beautiful! Trace
Beautiful church and stone. I love that you included the information about where the stone came from. As the subways were dug out, the stone was used for building something worthwhile and beautiful. betsey
