There has been a place of worship on this site since before 1170 which is the approximate date of the oldest part of the building, the Norman window in the Chancel.

The Chancel arcade dates from 1270 and the base of the spire from 1430. The great tower was completed in 1570. This is one of the only three churches with this feature of the tower and spire and is unique in having them both at the same end.

The building was greatly restored at the end of the 19th century. It has beautiful stain glass windows and carvings.

A beautiful fairy princess is trapped in the steeple of the church, captured by the evil witch! She looks out of the window at the Fairy City, eagerly awaiting for her love to rescue her.

Every time the church bell rings another fairy is captured!

Can have a market here every Thursday.

What does 'Alfo' mean on the gravestones?

Sounds of the bell chiming, the cars and people talking

What artists use techniques to get the stained glass windows? Could we incorporate this into our topic?
