Stones and gravestone marking the site of St Michael’s Church, the first recorded in 1254. The original church was much larger than later records show. The nave was 32ft 9ins long and 18ft 9ins wide with walls 2ft 6ins thick. From this extended a chancel with a width of 15ft and 9ins. The south wall was traced for 23ft of its length and the east end lay at some point beyond. In 1660 the church was rebuilt using materials from the original church. The chancel of the new church was only 6ft 10ins long and this is the building depicted in the old drawings and by a model made by Miss A.P. Strong which is in Hollytrees Museum.
