On removal of a Chamaecyparis lawsoniana erecta near the lych gate in 1996 following storm damage, it was found to be over 100 years old. An avenue of clipped Taxus baccata (Yew) runs down to the Glebe Field on the eastern border, and leads visitors to the cemetery used in modern times.
A quiet, memorial garden has been established in the lower corner, featuring modern, ornamental trees such as Acer Crimson King and Robinia Frisia, and bordered by Fagus sylvatica (Beech) and Prunus spp.(Flowering Cherry). Several memorial trees have been planted in the churchyard.The War Memorial to those who gave their lives in the two Great Wars is located in the North West corner of the churchyard. Built by Corbens (who also built the gallery) in the 1920s for £217 from funds collected in the village, it was restored in 1995.You who visit this ancient Church and its surroundings, where for almost a 1000 years Christian worship has been offered continually, should not fail to say a prayer for those who minister and worship here today, and for all those who, through the centuries, have laboured to enrich and preserve this House of God.
