Description
St. Hieritha (or Urith) was supposed to have been beheaded in this village and where her blood fell, the spring gushed forth! Her image, complete with head and sickle [!], is kept it tip top order in a niche on the south side of the west tower of the church.
This was a place of pilgrimage for many years and it's plain to see how the money may have kept this church in such good condition as it is today.
