On my grandmother's side, the Hornbuckle family dates back to this Church and this town from the early 1500's. So if you see any headstone's in the local cemetary saying HORNBUCKLE, "GAULTER OR WALTER", they are related to me.

Down the Trent Photographic Memories
St Mary's Church, just visible amongst the trees, was rebuilt with a tower after the steeple fell off the original building in 1792.

Leaving the path we can descend to the foot of the cliffs to this weir, and leaving the woods, walk back to the village... [more]
