Christ Church and its churchyard, Broad Town
The church is small and unpretentious. It probably dates from the mid 19th century. The church is run by women. The vicar and both church wardens are of the feminine persuasion.

Christ Church, Broad Town
This is a small unassuming church dating from the 19th century. It was locked so I couldn't take any interior shots. I try hard to emulate the premier church snapper on Geograph but I can't stop the tendency always to write a description.

Churchyard, Christ Church, Broad Town
The church is without a spire or tower, hence it's easy to miss on the map. It is just inside the eastern edge of the square. I think the church dates to the mid 18th century.

Detail, gravestone, Christ Church, Broad Town
This is a close-up of the grave marker in this image http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1015744 I guess it represents a flower of some sort; a tulip perhaps?

Gravestone, Christ Church, Broad Town
The fact that the grave marker is in the form of a cross means that this is Victorian or later as cruciform gravestones only came into fashion in the 19th century. The church is at the right, Behind is the scarp west of Uffcott.
