Holy Trinity Church
The churchyard here is the setting for Stanley Spencer’s famous painting ‘The Resurrection’. Although the first stone church here may date from 750 AD, the earliest identifiable part of the current building is the Lady Chapel. Built in the late 12th century on the dwelling of a female hermit living there, she was reportedly paid a halfpenny a day by Henry II.
