Despite the church being in a tucked away location out of the village, it is well worth a visit not only for the historic features of the building but also its very special churchyard which is managed for biodiversity & wildlife through informal community partnerships spearheaded by the Friends of the Church work with various local conservation partners NWT, BADCOG, BVCG as well as with members of the church congregation.
