More about this scene

St Bartholomew's church dates back to 1240, but even before that there was a church on this high ground. The strong tower appeared in 1450. Within is a piscina, part of the original 12th-century building, and the font was probably presented by the Bradley family. Amidst such ancient relics the modern stained glass window celebrating the present-day Berry's Chairworks looks happily at home.
