T- W-T The Churches of Tudeley and Capel in Kent

Tudeley Church (All Saints)
All Saints’ Church at Tudeley is a small parish church that became internationally famous because Marc Chagall designed its complete set of stained-glass windows.
It's a small medieval church in a rural setting, with a simple interior and churchyard that contrast nicely with the drama of the Chagall glass at Tudeley.

Capel Church (St Thomas à Becket)
St Thomas à Becket Church, Capel originated as a Norman-era chapel of ease, serving pilgrims traveling from Chichester to Canterbury's shrine of Thomas Becket, who was murdered in 1170—hence it's dedication.
Most significant however, are the extensive medieval wallpaintings which cover most of the nave, depicting amongst others Cain and Abel and Christ's entry into Jerusalem.
