More about this scene
The parish church of St Mary was left high and dry about half a mile to the south as the settlement migrated to the new market in the 13th century. It thus feels more like a country church than a town one, with a large pond between it and the footpath to town. The scene is little changed, except the gates from the 1871 lychgate have gone. Behind is the Manor House, mostly rebuilt by George Devey in the 1870s, and now a school.
