Not sure what to write as a experience, if you like and enjoy your history you'll be visiting this place and you should.
The church itself is very well looked after and a must visit.
Very pretty church with lots of history and wonderful strained glass and carvings. Well worth the beautiful walk along the river through the RSC gardens.
