Cross outside St Lawrence Church
Cross outside St Lawrence Church
The original church was completed in 1157AD and since then it has seen regular alteration and extension. Thanks to the efforts of a small group of volunteers from the congregation and beyond, the church is open for visitors every day from around 9.00 am to 5.00 pm.

The tower houses a clock installed in 1904 to replace the one that had existed since at least 1686, and is renowned for keeping excellent time. There is a ul peal of six bells which date from between 1677 and 1873 LinkExternal link
