A beautiful Parish Church with a large and very well kept Graveyard, The church was founded in Norman times although all that survives from that time is the arch above the south west door. In 1904 when Lady Tweedmouth (An aunt of Sir Winston Churchill) died her husband remodelled the church where she is buried adding the tower seen in my Photograph in her memory.
