St Mungo's Dearham | Ancient Cross | England | Cumbria | Visited | 9th Jul 2018 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Ancient Crosses and a Norman font, St Mungo's Church, Dearham: After having been to two other churches which had been firmly locked, this church was, thankfully open and very welcoming.
The church was packed full of knitted scenes from the bible, jewellery and books. We missed the Adam Stone, b... Read More |

St Mungo's Church (Bromfield) | Ancient Cross | England | Cumbria | Visited | 9th Jul 2018 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Hogback and ancient crosses at St. Mungo's Church, Bromfield: Our first stop of the day. This is clearly an ancient village.
The church was locked, so the only stone we could see was in the porch – AS Corpus Bromfield 04. From the Corpus image, the top of the hogback looks clearer from the i... Read More |

St Mungo's Well (Bromfield) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Cumbria | Visited | 9th Jul 2018 | 3 | 4 | 4 | St Mungo's Holy Well, Bromfield: The kissing gate from the north of the churchyard led down some sandstone gate, although the gate had been wired shut with a cable tie, so we had to clamber over.

St Mary's Church (Gilcrux) | Ancient Cross | England | Cumbria | Visited | 9th Jul 2018 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Viking cross head and shaft fragments, St Mary's Church, Gilcrux: We arrived here to find the outer screen door open, but the door into the church very firmly locked. To say this was disappointing was an understatement, as the building looking fascinating with a lot of history from the outside.

The Hatching Well (Gilcrux) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Cumbria | Visited | 9th Jul 2018 | 4 | 3 | 5 | The Hatching Well, Gilcrux: We arrived here and find this well bubbling away just outside the church - completely unexpected as it's not got any entries on Pastscape or Historic England. Neither is it mentioned in the Wikipedia entry for Gilcrux.
I guess finding this well made up for not being ab... Read More |

Blennerhasset Cross | Ancient Cross | England | Cumbria | Visited | 9th Jul 2018 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Three crosses in one, Blennerhasset, Cumbria: Having been to four churches to see Anglo Saxon carved stones, and only found one unlocked, I wanted to stop and see the 'cross' marked on the OS map in this small village. This really is a stunning medieval village, and I wish we’d had more time to ... Read More |
