Whilst there you might like to take a stroll around the village green, which has some interesting relics including this stone.


John Wesley preached from this stone in 1782 - 'The World is My Parish'

A Roman Milestone

It is a lovely village and quiet now that it has a bypass which has taken all the traffic out of the village.
