There has been a Church on the present site since Saxon times, the present building dating from C14, with alterations carried out in 1842 and 1861. It consists of two aisles and a chancel.
In the churchyard can be found the stump and the base of an old stone cross and a yew tree with a circumference of 17 feet, both are thought to date from the eleventh century.
An old tree appears to have grown 'out of the wall' and is hollow with a large hole through it yet it still lives! The church has a fine old organ which has recently been restored.
To find the cache:
Let (when you are facing the tree)
A = the number of spikes coming out of the wall on the LHS of the tree
B = the number of spikes on the RHS of the tree
C = A x B D = C/2
The coordinates of the cache are
N 52 58.327 + C
W 001 40.607 + D
