This isn’t St Mary the Virgin Church, Dedham. This is St Mary the Virgin Church, East Bergholt. Well worth a visit.

A song that, originally from the American gospel tradition, has traveled the world, is a perfect fit for this church, which the parish has entrusted to the patron saint of "All Saints." "Oh when the Saints go marching in, oh when the Saints go marching in, oh Lord, I want to be in that number, oh when the Saints go marching in." Over the decades, new versions of the lyrics have been created repeatedly; the original text cannot be verified due to the early oral tradition. Many artists have taken up the gospel song and released their own interpretations, such as Bruce Springsteen with his session band at a concert in Dublin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6eKkirEcgE

A typical English church with a very old cemetery

An ancient woodland in Suffolk, Rowley Grove is a small yet lush area perfect for exploring a less-explored corner of Suffolk.

A Grade II* listed building, the All Saints' Church of Shelley is the key centrepiece of one of the most charming villages in Suffolk.

Whilst people have been worshipping on this spot for over 1,000 years, this beautiful church was originally built somewhere around 1350, nearly 700 years ago. It was originally designed with a tower in mind, but it was never completed. Legend says that every time the builders stopped for the night, the devil tore it down. Whatever happened, the five bells, considered the heaviest in England, are now housed in a bell cage and still rung before each service.

There are guided tours available in the holiday season which you can pick up from Flatford Cottage where there is also a pretty decent cafe and a picnic area. Boats are also available for hire and there are short boat tours that will take you on the beautiful Stour as far as Dedham.

The Flatford Granary stored grain until the 19th century when flour milling became profitable. Owned by Golding Constable, it passed to his son Abram and was eventually sold to William Bentall in 1846.
