HEAD FOR HEIGHTS: The steeplejack at St Mary's Church, Bridgwater. PICTURES: Les Pickersgill
THERE are not many jobs that would require you to have a strong head for heights.
But a steeplejack is certainly one of them - as these amazing pictures show.
They were captured by Somerset Camera Club member Les Pickersgill of a steeplejack scaling the tower at St Mary's Church, Bridgwater, reachign a height of around 55 metres.
The Jack was from Dawson Steeple Jack Ltd, and was there to remove ladders from the spire, after repair work was carried out.
