About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

St. Nicholas' Church dates from about 1100. It started life as a religious house and was home to several nuns and monks. The church was temporarily closed during the reign of King John. At that time bodies were buried in the woods and sermons were preached outside the main door! The building also housed the village school from 1823. There are many interesting features of the building. These include the original Priest's Doorway on the north side of the chancel, the 17th century hour glass still in reach from the pulpit(!), a 15th century mural painting behind the lectern, and a collection of chained Bibles, dating from 1549. The font dates from the early 13th century and the heavy church door hangs on one hinge and dates from the early 14th century. The altar rails were installed about 300 years ago to prevent their lordships' spaniels spoiling the altar!
