More about this scene

Beoley predates Redditch, but it remains a small village on the northern edge of the present New Town. In 1140 the Norman Lord of the Manor, Geoffrey of Limesey, built a church (probably on the site of a Saxon one) dedicated to St Leonard, patron saint of prisoners and, appropriately enough, of iron workers.
