Brentor

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

The small village of Brentor is famous for its medieval parish church of St Michaeel de Rupe, which stands on a rocky tor overlooking the Burn valley. The tor is all that remains of an ancient volcano. There are actually two parish churches, but it is the older 12th century building which draws visitors. The climb to the top is short and steep, but the views are fabulous. The church ios the fourth smallest in England at only 40 feet in length, but it stands at a higher elevation (340 metres) than any other.
