Medieval chapel of ease with separate side room and kitchen
Saint Christopher's Church is a medieval Grade II listed Anglican church with kitchen and toilet facilities, situated between Stage 13 and 14 of the Pilgrims Way.
The church was originally a medieval hall house. It was later a barn and then a village school. In the 1950s, it was adopted as a chapel of ease. Pilgrims can sleep in the chapel with its spectacular beamed roof, or in the cosy school room fitted with a comfortable carpet. The kitchen has a kettle, sink and power points. There are good basic toilet facilities with a hand basin. The Flying Horse village pub is ideally placed across the village green for an evening meal. Perry Court Farm shop and cafe is 0.8 miles / 1.2km from the Pilgrims Way and serves breakfast from 8am, with plenty of local food to take onwards for lunch.
The church is usually a good temperature, but if the heating is required an additional donation towards costs would be appreciated.
