Dist:0.8km<br/>Pulled down in 1853 only the tower remains. It was erected in the 15th century but contains C12th & C14th elements from an earlier church. The dedication is given variously as to All Saints, or St Mary. The field in the foreground is moated on 2 sides and the overgrown churchyard to the east contains many gravestones.

Dist:1.3km west<br/>The road was opened on 8 October 2004 to bypass the villages of Wadesmill, Thundridge, High Cross and Colliers End, and linked up with the existing bypasses on the A10 around Ware to the south and Puckeridge to the north. Here the bypass sweeps across the valley of the River Rib.

Dist:1.5km west<br/>Old Church Lane leads, unsurprisingly, to the ruined old Church of St Mary and All Saints. However since the construction of the A10 Wadesmill Bypass it has been truncated for public vehicle use, and the national speed limit signs beyond the gate are now somewhat redundant. Beyond the embankment to the left is the River Rib.
