Geocache Description:

A 35mm pot


The church of St Mary and All Saints can be found on the very edge of the village and is reached by a long path between tall hedgerows and is guarded by an ancient door with three foot hinges and a huge lock and key. It has an embattled western tower five centuries old, a 13th century arcade with foliated capitals and a Jacobean panelled pulpit. The church was restored in 1893 by the rector, the Rev Robert Hurman, at a cost of £800. The parish registers date from 1569 and there are some interesting records of the ministers and the ornaments of the church that were destroyed in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I whilst a large stone memorial in the churchyard remembers the Rev Frederick Septimus Emly who died on 4th March 1875 at the age of 72, after serving as rector for 38 years.
