Small village really worth visiting on a bike tour with several nice houses.

Grade 2 listed . Designed circa 1841 by H E Kendall and built 1852.

I had a puncture around this location, where the road floods (as visible by the pebbles/detritus in the road). I recommend to *always* carry your bike over surfaces like that - not just here, but everywhere.

The "invention" of the prime meridian - or more precisely, the scientifically based division of the globe into degrees of longitude and latitude, with the prime meridian running at this point as the central orientation line - in the second half of the 19th century was an epochal masterpiece in the field of cartography and navigation, at that time especially important for seafaring. Even today, in the age of modern GPS navigation based on satellites orbiting the earth, the coordinates based on this principle are still used to determine locations. A film contribution (in German) from the recommended series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" explains the facilities in Greenwich, which are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, and addresses the problem of longitude measurement that was solved there.
