CATHOLIC / MARIAN ROADSIDE SHRINES.
"Come on all you Catholics it is time to get back to basics". There were roadside shrines all over England before the reformation. It is now time to start putting them back in their rightful place and for all my American readers then how about America doing this as well? I have always been a fan of roadside shrines which are normally seen in Italy, Spain and Ireland. However, let's not let those country have all the glory we can start to do this ourselves. Here are some examples to get you started. They do not even have to be very big as the final example shows.
This shrine (to St. Dunstan) is outside my old cottage in Dunstone, near Yealmpton in Devon, England.

If resources and space are limited then what about something simple?
