St Botolph's Church Boston - (Boston Stump)
The church is thought of as the ‘Calendar Church’, there are 365 steps that take you to the very top of the tower, to depict the days of the year. 12 pillars representing the months of the year that support the roof, 52 windows representing the weeks of the year and 7 doors for the days of the week.
In addition, there are 24 steps to the library for the hours in the day, on either side of the Chancel you have 60 steps taking you to the roof representing the minutes and the seconds, all these things combined make St Botolph’s Church a ‘Calendar in Stone’.
