This 12th-century chancel is a stunning example of Norman architecture, featuring a striking combination of Romanesque and Gothic styles. The exterior is adorned with intricate carvings, while the interior boasts a beautifully preserved apse, ornate stone carvings, and stunning stained-glass windows.
What a quaint unique chancel. Church erected 1170 this was. In the middle of fields and in the middle of nowhere
Remote and lovely, even on an overcast day. Is ancient with enough remaining historical features to show that this was the central top part (the nave) of a larger cross-shaped church from the 1100s
Beautiful small church in the middle of a field. Historic site and the Saxon/Early Norman crosses can be seen on the south side.
Beautiful little church.
Ancient and mysterious. Though redundant, you're more likely to find an open Bible here than many functioning churches.
Beautiful setting , So peaceful, well worth a visit.
