Great cafe!

Founded in 1984 by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso and set in the beautiful environment of Ashe Hall and 38 acres of mature parkland, Tara IKRC is a major UK Centre for Modern Buddhism.

The church dates from the 13th century. It was restored in 1844 with a contribution from the Queen Dowager, Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen of £20 and reopened on 23 December 1844. The church has the distinction of possessing what is likely the oldest complete stained glass window in an English parish church. The Romanesque figure of an Archangel is believed to date from the early 12th century and clearly originally designed for a small Norman window opening (likely lost during later alterations) and is now reset in plain glazing in one of the south windows of the nave.

It is not so common for a Christian place of worship – which encompasses the whole of heaven – to be dedicated to “ALL SAINTS”. Usually it is one (or occasionally two) named saints who hold the patronage of a church – and thus usually also of the parish or town in which it is located. But to find the origin of such a dedication, one has to go far back in history, because the model for this practice of dedication to ALL SAINTS can be seen as a pagan custom, according to which there were already central temples in pre-Christian times that were dedicated to all deities (PANTHEON). The probably most famous Pantheon, formerly a pagan temple and now a Christian place of worship, is located in the Italian capital.

It’s a great cafe in a great location

Nice little cafe that welcomes cyclists. Seating available inside and also in the courtyard. Various others shops around the courtyard. Cycles can be parked in the courtyard within view from the cafe.

The Crossing House, or Crossing Cottage, used to sit on the NSRC 'Jinnie' line which ran between Burton Upon Trent and Tutbury from 1848 until 1960. The track was dismantled in the 1970s, and some of the route now forms Princess Way, though some is a footpath that runs from Stretton to Rolleston on Dove.
