Biggish

HULL'S Holy Trinity Church is claimed to be the largest parish church by floor area in England.
The church from outside
However, like boasts of being the country's oldest pub, there is more than one claimant to this title.
Be that as it may, the church, which received the honorific minster in 2017, certainly has a spacious feel.
The altar
Looking back to the entrance
The stained-glass window behind the pulpit has a fairly modern look, and turns out to be from 1919 (spookily, perhaps, my current ECF rating is also 1919)
This plaque in honour of magistrate and churchwarden Major Charles Judge (1840-1916) is said to be "To the Glory of God," although the size of the various typefaces suggests it is more about the former than the latter
