Dist:0.4km<br/>Imposingly positioned on a hill in the middle of the village, the church is quite difficult to photograph in its entirety. There is much from the 13th and 14th centuries. The ironstone chancel, remodelled in 1845, really is that remarkable colour. Grade II listed: http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-190262-church-of-st-egelwin-the-martyr-scalford .
