A Derbyshire Walk

Bradbourne All Saints. A largely Norman church, some Saxon remnants round the back, and the cross shaft in the foreground is Saxon too. More info here.


The eroded but still beautiful tower doorway. The shapes around the outer arch were once beakheads.


The church also has a fine corbel table.


It's a fascinating churchyard, with many old and unusual gravestones, such as the circular one at the left. A fine view also.

Wigber Low, a barrow used from Neolithic to Anglo-Saxon times.


Near Parwich.
