A UNIQUE CHURCH
St Edmund's is an unusual church in many ways.
Local school children have called it 'The Castle'.
The central broad tower used to have a light within, which could be lit at night time like a lantern in the darkness.
Inside the church masonic imagery can be found throughout the building, and the vine worked in stone behind the altar is alone worth a visit.
