Hiking
The west tower of St John's Church is mainly all that survives after the parish church fell into disrepair after the reformation. In the 18th century it was reported that the church was converted into cottages but the only thing taking shelter there now are horses and sheep. It is possible that neighbouring St John's Farm was partly built from masonry from the church.
