St Michael & All Angels Church : Taddington

Nice Church located on a small village road. I had a walk around the grounds was very peaceful with a lot of small birds flying around and in the trees robins etc.

Walked from the van down into a local village in search of a pub. Walked through a nice churchyard on the way. The church tower and spire are 14th century and the body of the church is 14th to early 15th century with late 15th century re-windowing. There is a strong history and tradition of spirituality in the area with the oldest Neolithic chambered tombs in England located at Five Wells, above the village. The Norman cross in the church yard probably marks the site of an earlier church. In the churchyard also are known to be the 19th century unmarked graves of orphans from Litton Mill. Within the church is the memorial brass of the Blackwell Family, medieval coffin lids, three fonts and 17th & 18th century memorial grave slabs for notable local people. An annual Well Dressing and Flower Festival is held in the church, churchyard and around the village during the third week of August each year.
