Rare Scottish example of the work of William Burges.

Notched into the summit of the circular mound at the centre of the village of Cumwhitton, St Mary's is an ancient church dating from about 1160AD.

The church tower is a landmark for a long way around, and was rebuilt in 1861 to the original medieval designs, but in blue lias stone, rather than the Ham stone from which the rest of the church is built.

Close to the book town of Hay on Wye, St Mary’s has some original Norman features including the blocked up ‘devils door’ in the north wall.

Cusworth Hall was built by the architect George Platt for William Wrightson 1740-45.

Described by Arthur Mee as 'tiny and remote and prettily set' Cuxwold does indeed feel a little remote when there but it's only just off the main arterial road in Lincolnshire.

An ancient place of worship in a stunning setting overlooking the Vale of Clwyd, the Snowdonia Range and the coastline towards the Great Orme, set within a churchyard full of wild flowers in the spring and summer, close to the Clwydian Way walking route and a network of more local footpaths.

You can catch glimpses of Cwmyoy's 13th century church from the road as it winds up the Vale of Ewyas, and even from afar the leaning tower is very apparent.

An impressive building with a wealth of history, affectionately known by the community as Hafod Church.
