The church looks down through its quiet rural village towards Milton Abbey.

Sitting literally underneath the legs of the old Briton Ferry Bridge which carries the A48.

This is a priory church, presented soon after 1100 to the Benedictine Abbey of Lonlay, near Falaise in Normandy, but later reclaimed by Henry V. It was later given to Eton College by Henry VI.

Though the earliest written records go back to the 12th century, it is believed that a Christian church has stood here for over 1300 years.

A Dorset gem saved by the ghost of Thomas Hardy.

Church, manor house and overall setting combine here to make a memorable scene.

Beulah Chapel, known locally as The Round Chapel was the only building to survive the controversial demolition of Groes village in 1975.

An evocative setting, in front of Muchelney Abbey and opposite the medieval Priest’s House, internally, the unique ceiling was painted in the 1600s with angels in Tudor costumes.

The ancient cross in the churchyard is 15th century and two giant yews were grown to provide soldier’s bows and are said to be among the oldest in the diocese.
