Hiking

It is an 18th century church, of limestone, small, aisleless and endearingly idiosyncratic with a squat west tower which carries a dome, surmounted by a disproportionately large lantern (this in turn evidently once carried an urn, which now lies damaged at the foot of the tower). The nave is lit on each side by three arched lattice windows, one with tinted glass the rest plain. A 19th century writer dismissed it for its “hideous style that was then considered suitable for ecclesiastical edifices”. The locals disagree: its local nickname is “little St Pauls”.
