Corston Triangle
This grass triangle is very close to the Post Office. Notice the staddle stones which were once used to support granaries above the ground thereby protecting the stored grain from vermin and water seepage. The house on the right of the terrace is called the old bakery.

Corston's old school
This modern private residence was the National School for the village, opened 1844. The foundation stone was laid by Mrs Simpson, the vicar's wife and witnessed by a handful of local dignitaries. A speech, composed by the Rev. Simpson and approved by the Chancellor, was read; the Hundredth Psalm was sung and the school opened up to the many children of the labouring classes.

New tree, old village
This small traffic island has the bunting out for the annual fete. But the tree in the centre is a sapling that replaces an old elm that used to stand here - the Hanging Tree. It is commemorated by a small plaque (see Image] ) as the tree associated with the sweeping retributions following the Monmouth Rebellion of 1685.
