Dist:0.2km<br/>Grade II listed. Origins in 13th Century, with later alterations in 18th and 19th C. It has a Norman font with cable moulding around the top. There is also a Lych gate. Like many churches these days, it was locked at the time of visit.

Dist:0.3km<br/>(From the leaflet on the lych gate.) "This is a Medieval Church which like many other churches in the district was changed in the 18th Century. The arches to the Nave, Chancel and the East Window are all perpendicular although the latter will have been moved when the Chancel was shortened. The stained glass windows are 18th/19th century. The drum shaped font is Norman and has a double 'Band of Rope' carved around it. The pulpit has a wooden back panel and overhead Tester which would have been built at the time other changes were being made. The front of the Readers Desk is adorned by some intricate carving. There is a single Bell in the Tower of unknown age, but probably of the same period as the obelisk pillars on the Church Tower."

Dist:0.3km<br/>Time to get back indoors - a cold evening lies in store. Trees huddle and close in on St Thomas' Church while the con-trails chase the setting sun.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The bridleway from Wood Langham to Legsby is easy to follow until the last field. Here there is no obvious route from gate to gate, it's a matter of navigating around the innumerable molehills.
