St Nicholas'
SE 932 590

This pleasant looking church stands on the main road through the village. It was locked when I visited though there was details of how to obtain access but I didn't have time.

 

Looking around the outside I found a green man carving on the outside window. I intend to return to view the interior soon.

 

Having returned I found a nice stone church with a few carvings of interest. There is a collection of corbels and capitals lodged in the walls at various places. Many of the corbels have a beakhead design though of several variations.

 

A good glossary termPiscina exists halfwaydown the south wall. The church is the product of changes over many centuries and has only recently been dedicated to St Nicholas, hence the lack of images of that saint.
