Geocache Description:

Although the terrain is wheelchair friendly, you would need someone to retrieve the cache for you.

Saint Mary and All Saints.

The church stands inside a brick wall enclosure. Built on the site of a roman settlement and villa. The present church, listed Grade I, was built over 1000 years ago, re-using materials from the villa. Radiocarbon dating of the wooden window-sill on the north side was pre-conquest (1066) and centered on 1000 AD.

The Victorians gave the church its present appearance and its greatest treasure the French stained glass (East Window) from the 12th century. The glass was bought in 1839 by the Revd B D Hawkins from the cure of Chenu, near Tours.

The church is the only church in the village.
