John The Baptist Church

John The Baptist ChurchThe Church GroundsInside the ChurchStained Glass WIndow
The church has Norman origins, but in its present form, dates from the 1300's.

It is dedicated to St John the Baptist whose feast is on mid-summer day. The church was built so that at sunrise on this day, the sun shines straight into the east window.


Colston Hall

Colston Hall is a centuries-old farmhouse that was built over 500 years ago.

The structure was dated by examining the roofing techniques used. The tall part of the house has a pegged and dowelled roof, dating it to the early 16th century. The lower part features some early nails, which began to appear in the later 16th century.

The stables, barns and granary were added later, right up to the Victorian era.
