The much restored and extended Anglican church of St Michael is said to date back to the 13th century. In this picture the photographer has Church Lane behind him. Originally the church was a plain rectangular building consisting of chancel, nave and a small tower. At some time in the 15th century a south aisle was added, and in the next century the porch. At the same time as the construction of the porch another stage was added to the tower, which is square, pinnacled, and unbuttressed. At a later date the porch was moved from the south to the north side of the church, its old position still visible via markings on the outside of the south wall.
