Church Notes: church first mentioned 1125; present church is 19thC (1874-1878) re-building
[NB: we have found no information on the font of the 12thC(?) church here, but we received a photograph of what looks very much like the round basin of a baptismal font abandoned on a yard; it could be the medieval font discarded in the 19th-century re-building]
