Fox-and-Cubs Daisy

Highlight • Natural

The name refers to the sunny daisy-like, rusty orange mature flower and its flanking buds, with fuzzy blackish haloed hair. Imagine a field of these flowers that resemble a mama fox and her little ones, gamboling across the landscape.

St John the Baptist Church, Westwood

Highlight • Historical Site

The church was built in 1842. It is built from the local red stone and consists of a nave, chancel and a north porch with a brick bellcote over the west gable. It is one of the first archaeologically conscientious churches in England … an attempt at least at recreating the local village church … the attitude is unmistakably the Victorian as against the pre-Victorian. Lord Leigh of Stoneleigh, who was a scholarly poet and a member of Christ Church, Oxford, provided the site, the endowment and the stone from his nearby quarry. It was designed for 300 people, with two-thirds of the sittings being free and was completed by 1845, although a vestry was later added in 1876.
