Dedicated to the decollation (beheading) of John the Baptist, this is one of the rarest in England and shared only with Trimmingham, Norfolk. The church is a treasure trove of historical gems, including a Norman chancel, 13th century wall paintings, medieval poppy-heads and a double squint. The tower was replaced by the present wooden one in the 19th century.
