Standing tall and proud, the Church of St Margaret dominates the landscape with its magnificent spire reaching towards the heavens. The Victorian architecture is beautifully preserved, showcasing intricate details that are a testament to the craftsmanship of yesteryears. Nestled within this picturesque scene lies a tranquil churchyard, where time seems to stand still. Rows upon rows of weathered headstones tell stories of lives long gone, their inscriptions fading but not forgotten. This sacred ground serves as a reminder of our mortality and the enduring power of faith.
