Geocache Description:

Along a beautful cobbled road in a picturesque village.

The original church of 1120 was probably of the type commonly found in villages throughout England, consisting of a nave without aisles and a chancel, the floor was of hard earth. The 12 th century saw further building work carried out with the construction of the Boydell chapel on the south side of the church. In the 16 th century much of the original Norman church which had stood for 400 years was rebuilt, but the Boydell chapel was left intact, the tower appears to have been built first and is surmounted by battlements. The 19 th century saw further building work and it was at this time that the Saxon font was discovered buried three feet below floor level. It is made from the same local sandstone as the rest of the church and is oblong shaped large enough for the total immersion of a child, the ornamentation is very rude and irregular which is evidence that it was probably made by a village mason without rule or compass.


Please DO NOT park on church lane,there is a no parking zone in place,please park in the rams head or parr arms car park.
