Great Bradley St Mary?s church
At first glance, this charming little Norman church seems nothing out of the ordinary, but it houses one of the earliest bells in the county. Dating from the early 1300’s it is inscribed, ‘RICARD DE WYMBIS ME FACIT’. Although the tower has been cement-rendered, this is probably the best example of how it should be done. The decorated Norman doorway, with two engaged columns, is protected by an elaborate Tudor red-brick porch which has eight empty niches and a lofty crow-stepped gable.
