Information About This Church
* St Walburge's is the tallest spired parish church and the third tallest church spire of any type in Britain. * Preston was made a City for the millennium celebrations so it is likely that St Walburge's will be elevated to cathedral status in time. * Completed in 1854.

Being within a few miles of the village, they helped Wroxham become the major centre for cruising that it is today.
Looming over the rooftops is the gleaming white tower of the lighthouse, built just six years previously.
Although an old market town, Lisburn is at the heart of the Irish linen industry. Behind the market square can be seen the Protestant cathedral, built in 1623 and elevated to cathedral status in 1662.
The long High Street curves gently towards the triangular market place in front of the Abbey gatehouse. The Ford Service Depot on the right, with the two Fords parked nearby, is still a car showroom.
The village owes its fame to Aysgarth Force, which comprises three main waterfalls, and a number of cascades. The upper falls can still be viewed from a 16th century single-arch bridge over the Ure.
For hundreds of years smuggling was a major industry in Swanage: the smuggled goods were hidden in the local caves and quarries.
Passers-by on the rustic bridge, which was constructed at the same time as the ravine, pause to admire the waterfall which was part of the landscaping.This feature had become derelict, but has been

It was the first place of adult education in Grange. Now, it is used for various meetings and functions.
The old road curved through Little and Great Eccleston, but the by-pass of 1940 split these two villages. In 1823 William Bennet renewed his licence for the White Bull (right).
