This unforgettable village cupped in a hollow with a large wayside pond is the home of All Saints' Church. In the chancel is a chalice brass to Vicar Johnson, 1460, one of the earliest examples of this kind of brass work. There is also a bust of John Wesley carved from an elm that grew on the green where he preached.
