To the right, The Fox. To the left the pond. Straight ahead up the road, houses. At this point in spring there will be a toad watch where people in buckets help little leathery bags of bones cross the road from the fields to the pond to spawn.

Dist:0.2km<br/>This is one of the most interesting churches in Hertfordshire. The tower was built in 1430 and at the top there are many fine gargoyles; some of the best in the county. The rest of the church is 12th century with a south porch added in the 15th. This view is from Willian Church Road.
