St Peter's - tower dates from 1634 - church gothicised in the mid 19th century. Several brasses.

Farm is next to the church and owns land with ruined myddle castle on it - not at all stunning ruin. Part of a big dairying area.

Some Snowdrops emerge below an old wall on the village's western outskirts.

The two chimneys argue for domestic residential use but the large doors argue for vehicular or business use. Was it the old forge or smithy?

The roof is in good nick, so too are the tall chimneys but the windows appear to be out, guttering missing and the building presents a neglected aspect to the passing eye.

This house appears to be unoccupied and maybe partly derelict, bereft of window glass and unmodernised.

Dist:0.2km<br/>This close or cul-de-sac development of newish executive-type homes is called Wellcroft. Even though it has stood here for several years now it still seems a little at odds with the rest of the village, where plenty of architectural variety can be seen. I know that new developments are really vital for village life (bringing in the spending power of new residents, keeping school rolls up etc) but they often look pretty sterile, unchanging, Stepford-like and unimaginative. Though whether this perception of mine is wrong, or the fault of the architects, planners, builders or the residents I can't say. So I better shut up and move on...

Dist:0.3km<br/>A pretty village and parish church, though the view from the road at this angle is somewhat blighted by the overhead cables.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Close up of the detail on the lych gate at the entrance to St Peters Church, Myddle [[594743]]. Context: Jesus spoke to Martha who's brother Lazarus was dead and had lain in his tomb for four days. After telling her that Lazarus would rise again, : "Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" John 11:25,26

Dist:0.3km<br/>I was lucky enough to be present as the church bells struck 3pm - very melodic and pleasant it was too on a still, chilly and fresh February afternoon.
