A small, predominantly 14th-century church featuring a 9th-century Saxon stone crucifix. Also in the church is the Savage Brass, dated to 1605, which depicts a woman in childbed. The detail of clothing and room furnishings make the brass a wonderful historical record and one that is also used frequently for brass rubbings.
